Parents work from home less often than people without children
Covid-19 has caused a real boom in working from home. But does everyone benefit equally from this increased flexibility in working? Science journalist Patricia Michaud addresses this question in a blog post on DeFacto.
With the Covid-19 pandemic, working from home has experienced a real boom. But are we all equal when it comes to remote work? Science journalist Patricia Michaud explores this question in a blog post from the NRP 80 on DeFacto. Therein, she argues that there is no one-size-fits-all solution for organising fairremote work solutions. Her contribution is based on the work of the research group 'Fair and beneficial home-working' and on the expertise of Gesundheitsförderung Schweiz.
Based on the findings of the research group 'Covid-19, trade and labor' of the NRP 80, the article also shows that companies have adjusted their criteria for hiring workers since the pandemic began.
