Tech Talk Radio: The true impact of remote working

LISTEN On this week’s episode of Tech Talk Radio, EG tech and global reporter Lucy Alderson sits down with Karin Moser, professor of organisational behaviour at London South Bank University Business School, to talk about how remote working and our intense use of technology to keep businesses running is impacting on our mental health.

So if working from home has taken its toll on our mental health, what does this mean for the future of the office? And what steps can employers take to avoid video call fatigue?
