January Blues? Not in London: Over Half of Londoners Are Happy to Go Back to Work

January is collectively known as a depressing month with everyone back in the office after the festive season. However, Londoners feel actually happy to be back to their desks!

  • Commute isn’t A Killer – Even though Londoners have the tenth worst commute in the world, only 1 in 5 are dreading by it.
  • Friends Are Everything, Including at Work – Full time employees spend an average of 37.3h a week at work and having friends in the work environment is a priority for Londoners.
