Businesses allowing remote work

Hello everybody!

In our last English lesson we talked about a new trend in society – working from home. So everyone of us got the exercise to interpret a chart.

My graph is about „Businesses allowing remote work”. It’s a bar chart, which shows the percentage on its vertical axis. The numbers on the horizontal axis stand for the number of employees in different companies.
On an average 62% of the Austrian companies allow remote work. As you can see in the graph, three out of seven charts are under the average of 62 %. Companies employing 20 to 99 people are right at the average. Among the companies employing 5 to 9 people almost 50 % allow remote work. Nearly three out of four companies employing 500 to 2500 people allow remote work.

I personally think that allowing remote work is a good idea. But I don’t think that this chart represents the situation in Austria. I guess that there is much less remote work in Austria.
It’s a win-win-situation for the company and the employee because the company save labour costs and the employee don’t need to go to work.
