More and more people are working from home rather than at the workplace. Some people say this will bring benefits to the workers and their families, but other think it will bring stress to the home. Discuss both views, and give your own opinion.
Work
from home
has become a new trend in this
pandemic crisis to abide by the protocol of social distancing. An increasing number of people have a preference to work
from home
due to the risk of getting infected with the virus on the job. There are conflicting views regarding whether working at home
have more merits or demerits. Some folks proclaim that this
incline in trend is beneficial to employees while on contrary side other argue that it causes unnecessary tension at home
. In the following essay, we will elaborate both points of view and will explain my support to the latter standpoint.
Commencing with the pros, the individuals who perform from home
saves a lot of time
of transition, and they do not require to waste their crucial time
in traffic congestion this
additional time
which they get can be utilized in several more productive activities or for family. Many times, the employee need to migrate to other cities leaving their family behind. However
, if the work
from home
is advocated, the work
can be completed from any part of the world, thus
they do not need to split up from their family for their livelihood. For instance
, the person
sitting 100 km away from the workplace can accommodate the work
from the home saving
lots of money and Accept comma addition
home, saving
time
in travelling. Besides
this
, most of the people find their home
to be the most relaxing place which can offer them the environment conducive for work
which let them be highly productive in their comfort zone.
On the converse side, it is undeniable that the work
from home
can ignite the stress level that is
carried forward to home
. For instance
, while working at home
, there are no specific work
hours all they need to do to complete the specific task in whatever time
it takes which can lead to people working longer than the normal routine that can cause a domestic dispute and tension among family members. Furthermore
, there are high chances that they might not be able to concentrate on their work
because of the noise created by kids. Many times, it slips out of the family member's mind that the other person
at home
is working and accidentally the noises created in the surrounding can affect the concentration and may affect the work
efficiency. What is more, is that many times they can fail to grab the opportunity which may arise in the workplace. To exemplify, there comes a time
when the urgent meeting is conducted, and presentation is to be made if at this
time
being at home
will not let person
seize the chance and might lose the opportunity to get a promotion or bonus.
In conclusion, it clearly shows that the disadvantages out shadow the advantages. Even though staying at home
and working will not let the person
be more available for family, that is
why it is better that the work
is done from the office, so the work
stress is not carried forward at home
