The move to remote working due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the move away from offices has been welcomed by many workers and the ability to wear whatever you want may be one of the reasons why.

More than half of women questioned said they do their day's work in the pyjamas, amounting to 65 per cent, while 52 per cent of men said the same.

The survey of 1,000 workers also found that 40 per cent had an embarrassing work-related video call incident, 14 per cent of which said they forgot to change into something more appropriate before taking the call.

With winter well and truly upon us, only 6 per cent of men and 3 per cent of women said they wear only their underwear "all the time" while working from home.
