Some say that it would be better if the majority of employees worked from home instead of travelling to a workplace every day. Do you think the advantages of working from home outweigh the disadvantages? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

In
this
present globally connected world, it has become pretty much easier to do jobs from
home
.
Therefore
, some people surmise it may bring more fruit if most of the workers
work
from their homes rather than travelling to their job places. Though doing jobs from
home
has some benefits; negative results are far more than these plus points. No doubt, working from
home
has some positive aspects. It saves much of time which is wasted in travelling to
work
places.
For instance
, as I am a lecturer in a
university
and it takes me two hours of travelling to reach to my
university
from my
home
; same time period is consumed from
university
to my
home
.
Hence
, four hours a day are wasted, tiredness is another problem caused by
this
travelling.
Instead
, if I teach online, I can save myself from time wastage and tiredness.
Nevertheless
, there is a serious question needs to be addressed: does online teaching result in effective and fruitful learning for my pupils? Definitely, working from
home
does not produce the desired results. Because workplace has a working environment, it helps one to give one's cent percent efforts to bring better and better outcomes.
For instance
, in case of my
university
teaching, as we have experienced both ways of teaching: online and in-person - during COVID-19, all the classes were online - in previous years, we have come to the conclusion that online education can never be as effective as on-campus can.
Therefore
, on the basis of my personal experiences, I can confirm working at the workplace may always bring far better results as compared to doing tasks from
home
. In conclusion, in the presence of modern technology, it has become possible to
work
online from our homes.
Also
, it has some advantages;
however
, it does largely negatively affect the efficiency and proficiency of the
work
.
