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.
Regards,
Julian
