If you work from home, there's a good chance you're dealing with a lot of stress at the officebut if you work from home, there's a good chance you're also dealing with a lot of stress at the end of the day.
In fact, more than 70% of people who've worked remotely reported improved mental health, according to a study published in PLOS ONE.
Remote work allows workers to focus on their work without the distraction of social interactions or conflict, and it also allows workers to access mental health resources without having to travel to the office.
"Often, traditional workplace environments aggravate these conditions through constant interaction, pressure to 'perform,' or even by refusing to understand or accommodate individual mental health needs," the study's lead author, KatRIN BOLOVTSOVA, says in a press release.
"By minimizing triggers for anxiety and depression in remote work environments, employees can better manage their mental health daily."
There are also benefits to working from home, like being able to schedule appointments with mental health professionals without having to travel to the office.
But there are also downsides to working from home, like loneliness and a lack of structure.
"Some people thrive in a remote work environment," BOLOVTSOVA
