How long is your commute?

According to recent research by Peninsula, which was published by HR Look www.hrlook.com on Thursday, it now takes the average UK employee 1 hour and 5 minutes to commute to work, which is double the time that it took in 2003 (35 minutes).

The study has shown that the following reasons affect the increase in journey times:

Public transport late or cancelled
Road congestion
Accident creating severe delays
Public transport breaking down en-route
Public transport too full to stop and pick up passengers

How long does it take for you to travel to work?

How does this impact on you?

How much of a consideration is commuting time if you are seeking a new job?

Please share your experiences - I look forward to hearing from you.
