Working from home benefits workers and not employers. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Today's virtual life and the compulsory social distancing due to the recent pandemic revolutionised the working styles and moved

employees

from workplaces to their homes. It is being said that it has been a positive development for

employees

while

employers

are being suffered from;

however

, I am convinced that

this

phenomenon has

both

positive and negative sides to it for

both

parties. There are several arguments in favour of working from home for

employees

and

employers

. One obvious advantage of it is for staff who are now more flexible to do their tasks based on their timetables and pace. One can take the example of traditional working hours from 9 AM to 5 PM, which forced workers to adjust their all activities based on that.

Besides

it,

this

new lifestyle has saved a lot of

time

and

money

.

For example

,

employees

do not need to spend

money

on commuting to workplaces and can save that

time

and

money

for their hobbies and improve their lifestyle. Added to

this

is the

employers

' side who do not need to spend huge sums of

money

on renting offices, buying desks, chairs or other

office's

equipment.

This

directly contributes to savings becoming phenomenal and their businesses get more remunerative. Despite the above so-called positive aspects, there is a darker side for

both

.

This

time

flexibility has led to staff working overtime. A good example of that was lunchtime which was being used to take a rest and enjoy food, but now

employees

are working continuously while having lunch which can contribute to overeating. Apart from that, they are receiving emails even after work hours and end up working throughout the evenings. So one should say that working from home has had negative impacts on workers.

In addition

to

employees

, it has brought disadvantages for

employers

either by omitting their supervision on their staff.

This

leads to workers not working as productively as they used to.

For instance

, during the pandemic the

time

it took for an interior designer to complete customers' orders prolonged considerably.

This

results in customer complaints and hurts the business's reputation. To sum up, it is hard to say that the modern working style was extremely beneficial for either

employees

or

employers

. I would say that

this

new experience has affected

both

parties in positive and negative ways.
