Professor Jarrod Haar: Re-adjusting to the commute.

From Sunday Morning, 10:30 am on 11 December 2022

As the most severe impacts of the pandemic fade, many employers are beginning to re-adjust their policies on hybrid working with some now requiring employees to come into the office at least three days a week. 

For many people the days of the 30-second commute may be drawing to a close.  Which raises the question of the commute itself.

You wouldn't know that thousands of people in Auckland are working from home, everyone you talk to says the traffic's worse than ever. We talk to Professor Jarrod Haar from AUT about why the commute is something many people dread.
