41% of employees report more frequent addictive practices in teleworking, ten points more than in the usual workplace. In addition to the well-known addictions (tobacco, alcohol, drugs, etc.), new forms of addiction are emerging and disturbing employees who are addicted to them. Gambling, FOMO syndrome (fear of missing out), which leads to being constantly on the alert on the phone, the inability to disconnect at home, etc., represent new problematic addictions in companies.
