Photograph: www.maverickartsclub.com/Rex F The average Brit spends 100,000 hours at work – that's more than 11 and a half years. Nic Marks, director of Happiness Works, writes that if we were happier at work we would inevitably be happier in our whole lives: we'd be better partners, better parents, and better people. He believes the important things for our happiness are rarely even physical things, but instead the quality of our relationships and feeling of purpose we get from our home and working lives. The Happiness at Work Survey takes less than 10 minutes to complete and is benchmarked against national data on wellbeing in the workplace.
