MailOnline has corrected an article that mistakenly said a third of home-workers had no proper workspace. In fact, this was a survey of office workers in general.
” in December 2021 didn’t have a home workspace. It doesn’t say how many of them, if any, actually worked at home.
Among people who do work at home, the proportion with a workspace might be different. This data doesn’t tell us. Dr Matthew Davis, an associate professor at the Leeds University Business School, told Full Fact the claim in the MailOnline article did not reflect the research findings. He said: “Working for long periods in unsuitable workspaces, particularly using computer equipment, can have negative effects on physical health and wellbeing.
“However, many workers will also be working some of their time from traditional offices and third workplaces that provide more suitable ergonomic workstations.”The media should report research accurately so that the public understands what we know, and what we don’t, about important subjects that affect us all. When a mistake happens, it’s really important to correct the record, so we’re very grateful to MailOnline for doing so.
