Forty-seven per cent of respondents to a Vehicle Remarketing Association snapshot survey say they are currently facing issues affecting their work-life balance – but 89% say they are “somewhat confident” about coping with the stress caused.
The snapshot survey also asked members what coping techniques they were using and the answers ranged from golfing and finding time to spend with friends to taking out a Netflix subscription and buying a new motorbike while those that outlined problems that were weighing heavily on them mentioned uncertainty, concern about the future, and feeling as though events were out of their control.
