About one in six white-collar workers want to change jobs because their employer is forcing them to return to the office.
According to a survey of 1,000 people by the messaging service Slack, those who work in IT, telecoms, sales, legal and marketing are the most determined to continue working from home and are considering switching roles if they are unable to do so.
The research found that while a failure to increase staff pay and a poor bonus scheme were the most common reasons cited for wanting to quit, being forced back into the office also played a part.
Last week Boris Johnson announced that workers could immediately return to their offices, before the remaining plan B coronavirus measures were lifted this week.
