Oct 8, 2018 - Logitech Celebrates Second Annual Work from Home Week
More and more of us are working from home than ever before, and the trend is radically transforming how workers make, spend and save their money. Working from home is one of the most highly-coveted perks there is – and it’s no wonder. If you could skip the morning commute, work on a highly flexible schedule, and spend more time with your family and friends, wouldn’t you?
Participants of Logitech’s National Work From Home week saved more than 60,000kg of CO2 by working from home in 2017 alone. This is the equivalent of nearly 150,000 miles driven in a standard car, or equalling approximately six times the circumference of the Earth. These astounding insights has led Logitech to announce that for the second year in a row, the company is celebrating National Work From Home Week (#WFHWeek). It is also recognising 10th October 2018 as its global WFH Day and is encouraging employees to work from home on that day – adding on to a savings of 90 minutes of commute per day!
