30% of UK employees surveyed by a flexible workspace company don’t want to come into the office because of their bosses. Beyond’s survey, provided respondents with a variety of reasons why they may avoid the office. 1,262 full-time and part-time employees in the UK were surveyed between October 13-18 last year to find out what is hindering them from coming to the office. The report is published in Business Insider.
Participants in the online survey were presented with a series of statements . These included statements like “My manager/boss being in the office puts me off from commuting in more regularly.”
According to Beyond, 30% of workers agreed and said they’d actually go into the office more often if their bosses weren’t there.

Two-thirds cited the rising cost of living in the UK, agreeing that increased costs have them want to work remotely in order to save money. 54% of those surveyed agreed that they would go in more if their office had a better location that was either closer to their home or to their liking.
38% wished their workspace was up to a better standard and 30% of hybrid workers complained that their companies don’t offer their preferred working arrangements.
Workers may be keen to avoid their bosses because the tension between managers who want to bring staff back to the office and employees who want to keep working from home has risen significantly since economies reopened post-pandemic.
