Why some ethnic minorities prefer working from home

Remote work has been liberating for some employees, who say they have faced fewer micro-aggressions and less casual racism.

London, United Kingdom – On Tuesday, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson encouraged people to switch off their Zoom cameras and get back into the office.

“Otherwise, you’re going to be gossiped about and you’re going to lose out,” he told the LBC radio station. “You need to be there, and you have the stimulus of exchange and competition.”

His comments came as businesses across the country mull whether to call their staff back, keep them working from home, or adopt a hybrid approach.
