Megan Alexander: Robert Half recruitment expert on whether working from home reduces promotion opportunities - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

Working from the office could set people up better for a promotion than working from home. 

Recruitment agency Robert Half says 58 percent of workers believe opportunities to advance correlate with office attendance. 

It says 54 percent would turn up more if it was needed to get promoted.

Managing director Megan Alexander says there is a mentality of out of sight, out of mind. 

She explained that relationship building is critical to climbing the career ladder - which is difficult when you're sitting at home not talking to anybody.
