Call me a huge sceptic, I don't believe a word of this.
I think there's a hidden agenda here, I simply know that many employers/bosses are actively trying to discourage WFH (work from home) out of fear of losing control, they feel the urge to have their minions sitting in the office so they can look over their shoulder.
Bosses are afraid that people are slacking off when they WFH, but if you simply judge people by measuring output instead of number of hours sitting behind a desk then this problem goes away.
We should not fall into this trap, WFH simply has too many benefits both for society and for employees. Countless hours are wasted commuting and being stuck in traffic jams or overcrowded public transport, with huge downsides for society, environment etc. It just doesn't make sense.
Apart from that, I find this story especially egregious, obnoxious and irresponsible in the era of COVID-19 and given the need for social distancing. In this era, WFH should be actively encouraged, not discouraged.
True. Here is the Study link resources.scikey.ai/wp-content/upl... . I think their study is India Based and also they are unable to bring the real picture.

You're linking to a random india times media report, not the actual study. Do you have the link to the actual study?
