Office Addicts - Londoners Live to Work

A survey from LondonCareers.net reveals that 20% Londoners live to work.

313 participants voted in the online poll, which asked whether they could be tempted away from their laptop when working from home.

A staggering 1 in 5 people claimed there would be no temptation whatsoever ñ they live to work.

In an increasingly pressured society, with heavy workloads and more responsibility, Londoners spend increasing amounts of time on laptops out-of-hours.

Over 3 million of us work from home either full-time or part-time, according to the Office for National Statistics. However, blending work and home-life with no clear boundaries to help us switch off could have worrying implications for family life.

At the other end of the spectrum, 8.4% would take an extended lunchbreak, and a free-loading 6.8% respondents would be tempted to skip work altogether & go out for the day when ìworking from homeî!

Kevin Rolfe, Managing Director of Independent Magazines, & publisher of LondonCareers.net website & magazine, says
ìIts immensely gratifying to learn that so many of our magazineís readers and visitors to our recruitment web site are work conscious professionals who love to work and clearly love working in Londonî
