Over half of Udemy workers are not in favour of relaxed workplace norms, according to a US survey. Of the 1,000 workers surveyed, 52% consider hugging inappropriate at work, 66% are not in favour of dogs in the workplace, 63% consider casual "athleisure" clothing out of place at work, and 63% prefer not to connect with colleagues on social media. Respondents of all ages and genders responded in a similar way. Businesses should improve communication around boundary-setting and the workplace environment among workers, US said.
