The number of people working from home has doubled since before the pandemic despite employers’ efforts to draw people back to the office
Lord Stuart Rose argues that working from home (WFH) is detrimental to the UK economy and personal development. He believes it's resulting in decreased productivity and a "generation...who are used to actually not doing what I call proper work."
Rose contrasts his view with the experience of disabled workers who find WFH allows for better management of their conditions and maintains productivity. This highlights a key point of contention: while Rose sees WFH as harmful, others see it as a necessity and a driver of better outcomes for certain workers.
The article presents Ross's dissenting opinion as a challenge to the growing trend of WFH, which seems to be contradicting employer efforts to bring workers back to the office.
