Employees' Survey
Through a survey with remote employees we were able to express and test different hypotheses.
Assumptions
H1: "People do not like working from home."
H2: "The home office situation has negative impacts on the employees like an increasing stress level and health problems."
H3: “Employees would like to work as digital nomads.”

Validation
H1 Disapproved: 96% of the people are satisfied working from home. Contrary to our initial hypothesis, people do not have a problem working from home. 53,3% even prefer working from home.
The remote work trend seems to have many positive aspects for the employees. We will now think about a way to exploit this.
H2 Disapproved: 53,3% of the people are not more stressed working from home and only 34,5% say that their mental state should be improved.
Increased stress does not seem to be a mayor issue with the remote work situation. Nevertheless, there are people that are more stressed and wish an improvement of mental health issues.
Our solution could somehow tackle mental health issues as well.
H3 Validated: 80% can imagine working remotely as digital nomads, for long periods (52%) or short periods (28%).
