Working from home during the pandemic

Key findings

1. Compared with February 2020, concern rose from 4% to 91%; the most concerned are 40–49-year-olds, women, people living with family and the C2 group.
2. Before the outbreak some took no precautions; by April nobody did. Mask use, hygiene and immunity support rose sharply.
3. Most home workers were directed by their employer; women find working from home less productive than men, due to childcare and household duties.
4. The Health Minister and the Science Board are the most trusted sources; social media comes last.
5. Participants expect the pandemic to affect health for six months and the economy for a year on average.
6. About half do not believe life will return to how it was.
