However, the rush to the home office left many employees working from home in environments that were not designed for a day’s work and therefore risk causing them aches and pains.

Join us for this 2nd webinar in the "Working like a pro" series which will explore some new research on health and wellbeing in the home office, and some insights on how organisations can make the home office as healthy and comfortable as head office.

We’ll be giving away 3x £100 vouchers to random attendees, so make sure you register today!
