New Employee Survey shows Workers hate Commuting, Witness Bullying in Office, Dislike Colleagues & Prefer Zoom Meetings

A new national employee survey by leading job site, RemoteWorker highlights how millions of workers in the UK are unhappy working in offices or workplaces. The extensive national survey showed a staggering 42% of employees have witnessed bullying in the workplace and 17% of all workers admit that the worst thing about going to the office was interacting with work colleagues.

The survey went on to show that nearly a fifth (19%) of those surveyed said they hate the commuteto the office and 23% admitted the main reason they dislike being in the office was seeing their line manager. Nearly four times as many employeesadmitted they thought face-to-face meetings were pointless and time-wasting compared to zoom meetings. In fact, 96% of workers stated that working from home full or part-time was one of the most positive parts of their job.

The leading job site processes thousands of jobs and offers the latest cutting-edge technology to give job seekers the best solution to escape the workplace and become location independent.

Joe Boll, CEO at RemoteWorker, commented, “We believe every employee should have the choice to work independently from an office or workplace if possible. This is why we use the most cutting-edge tech to make it easy for anyone to find a new remote working role.

Our national employee survey certainly highlights how many employees are disillusioned with office environments and should hopefully make employers take notice and hopefully seriously consider offering more remote working opportunities where available.”
