The impact of a particular work arrangement on health can vary among individuals. For example, remote work might offer more flexibility, potentially reducing commuting stress and providing a better work-life balance for some. On the other hand, it could lead to challenges like social isolation and difficulty in separating work from personal life.
In this podcast, David talks about the various factors that come into play and influence employee well-being.
