UK workers are spending an extra two hours at work every day while people in the US are working three extra hours, according to an analysis of VPN data.
NordVPN Teams found that people in both countries are still working the extra hours that started in April when coronavirus lockdowns started.
People in France, Spain, and Canada have returned to their normal working hours pre-quarantine.
The company has been tracking VPN log in and log out times for workers in 10 countries to measure the impact of the remote work trend.
"The data has also revealed that the UK seems to start work an hour later than before the quarantine, but both the US and UK tend to work late. We also see that there is no significant drop in the usage of business VPNs during lunch time, which might suggest that lunch breaks have become shorter," Juta Gurinaviciute, chief technology officer at NordVPN Teams, said in a press release.
