Has lockdown changed your work and will you ever return to the office?

Staff are beginning to return to their workplaces as the furlough scheme comes to an end and the Government is encouraging us back to work to boost the town centres, cafes and lunch spots that rely on our trade.

A nationwide survey by InYourArea.co.uk and Fish4Jobs.co.uk wants to find out whether people are still working from home, how companies have grown, shrunk or disappeared and what people think about everything from job security to commuting.

Working from home, or WFH, has leaped during lockdown - peaking at 50% of the UK's workforce at the height of the pandemic.

Before lockdown, no more than 30 per cent had tried it, according to figures from the Office of National Statistics (ONS).

But has it been a good or a bad thing for productivity, work-life balance, wellbeing and the economy?

Answer a few quick questions in our survey to help work out how the world of work has changed in the last six months - and what the future could hold.

If you can't see the survey above please follow this link to find the questions.
