New research into which jobs make us happy from the What Works Centre for Wellbeing reveals that where you work is often as important as what you do.
Using a decade of various UK labour market wellbeing data, the independent collaborating centre study looked at life satisfaction, happiness, anxiety and the 'feeling that the things we do in life are worthwhile'. One of the key findings was that higher life satisfaction was reported by people who work at home or adjacent to home, for example in a garage or garden office.
Other findings included a positive relationship between gross annual salary and mean life satisfaction, and higher life satisfaction and lower anxiety levels when occupation is permanent, regardless of occupation type.
