Things that the Pandemic has Changed for the Better

Russell Dawson February 26, 2022 Home Improvement Leave a Comment

The pandemic of 2020  changed a lot of things in our life for some time. Our freedoms and movements were heavily restricted, our social lives were changed and the way that many of us looked at the world and the things that we had previously taken for granted also changed.

As we head out of the pandemic, for many of us, things are largely back to normal. However, some of the things that changed during those strange days are for lots of people things that we have made a permanent change or are now more aware of – here are a few things that are not the same as they were before 2020…

Working from Home – Before the pandemic, most people went out to work. Those that worked from home were certainly in the minority. However, since rules and restrictions relaxed, allowing people to once again head back into the office, many companies and employees decided that this was not the best thing to do after all. Many people found that working from home enabled them to fit their work around their life more easily, and by saving time on things like commuting also meant that they were more productive.

For employers too, the prospect of having more staff working from home meant that larger offices were not needed and therefore helped to save money on costs of running and renting office buildings. So, for many, this has been a win-win situation.

Cleaning – Although before the pandemic we all did our best to be clean, for most people it certainly wasn’t something that we could say was always a priority or on our minds as much as maybe it should be. In workplaces, germs can easily spread around, especially in the winter as flu season gets underway. Many workplaces create the perfect breeding ground for germs to spread and the pandemic has made us much more conscious of how we can be better at making our workplace hygienic and reducing the spread of illnesses.

Having professional cleaners come in like this contract cleaning Cheltenham based company biggreencleaning.co.uk to clean workplaces is a good way to stay on top of the hygiene at work. Hand sanitiser and a generally higher onus on hand hygiene is also something that has come out of the pandemic which should make the workplace a more pleasant place to be.

Travel and Transport – Before the pandemic, getting around was something that many of us didn’t give much thought to. However, as movements became more restricted, moving around the country became something that just stopped happening for most people. Travelling miles to a meeting stopped and instead technology like Zoom and Skype was utilised to enable people to stay in touch.

From a leisure perspective, the closure of borders of many countries also meant that holidaying in the UK was seen as a much better option, and for many this started a new love of the UK as a holiday destination. This has been positive for the environment as less travelling means less emissions and also for businesses having meetings online saves both time and money.
