53 de minute pe zi pe drum spre serviciu. Naveta devine un cost invizibil pentru angajați și companii

Employees in Romania spend an average of 53 minutes daily commuting, despite covering the shortest distance among 16 European countries. In Bucharest-Ilfov, the average commute time is nearly 73 minutes for just 16 kilometers. This situation highlights the impact of commuting on employee wellbeing and work-life balance. Many employees feel that commuting time detracts from their productivity. While a significant portion desires more remote work options, the focus should also be on optimizing in-office presence. Companies can enhance employee experience by implementing flexible work policies and better organizing in-person meetings. Interestingly, 61% of Romanians believe they have sufficient transport options, with a positive perception of public transport, despite longer commute times in Bucharest-Ilfov. This suggests that addressing commuting efficiency is crucial for employee satisfaction and retention strategies.
