class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">New research from Slack has found that two and a half years after the UK government enforced its work from home order in response to the Coronavirus pandemic, 88% of desk-based employees in the UK are working from the office at least one day a week, with the average worker visiting the office three days a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While 60% of survey respondents coordinate their office attendance with their teams, the survey, based on responses from 1,000 knowledge workers of all ages, job levels and locations across the UK, found that being in the office actually makes employees feel less productive due to the wrong tasks being prioritised, a disorganised approach to communications and meetings, and time spent catching up with colleagues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking at Slack\u2019s Frontiers event earlier this week, Daniel Hansens, EMEA senior director at Slack, said that over the last two years, we\u2019ve seen that when offices are taken out of the equation, businesses can still survive and thrive in many cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOne of the interesting things that the research pulls up is, it\u2019s not just about getting more people into the office, or getting them together as a team, the question is what they&#8217;re actually doing when they&#8217;re in the office,\u201d Hansens said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a
