LONDON, UK – July 2022 – Research reveals almost half (45%) of Gen MZs (1981-2005) say their ‘working from home’ space has cluttered their home, impacting their mood (28%), creativity (22%), productivity (21%) and inspiration (19%).

The study by Samsung Electronics Co Ltd. found nearly three quarters (72%) have had to make changes to their homes to adapt to the new working conditions, such as installing IT equipment from work (43%), buying additional furniture, such as a desk or a chair (40%), and changing the layout of their living space (36%).

In terms of where Gen MZs are working within the home, 32% sit on the sofa and 30% even work from their bed, showing a lack of suitable space within the home. It’s therefore not surprising that just 20% are ‘very satisfied’ with their working from home set up. And compared to when they first started working from home, almost two in five (39%) feel less productive now and 38% are bored of doing it.
