The survey, spanning the second quarter of 2015 found that of the remaining half, some 30.5 percent spend between 15 and 30 minutes on their commute with 14.1 percent taking between half an hour and one hour to get to work.
Finally, the remaining 3.9 percent of members of staff take over an hour to complete each of their daily journeys.
The survey also found that over half of all employees, 55.5 percent of this nationally distributed sample, stated that they work under serious or moderate time pressures with 66.8 percent stating that they had no influence over their working timetables.
In turn, however, 62.9 percent of employee said that it would be easy or very easy to clock off from their workplace for a short period of time defined as 1-2 hours whilst that figure falls to 39.9 percent in terms of those agreeing that it would be feasible to take a couple of days holiday with only a short period of prior notification.
In both cases, males perceived greater ease in such situations with 64.0 percent of men against 61.7 percent of females agreeing in the former case and 41.7 percent of men maintaining the possibility of accessing last minute holidays against 38.0 percent of women, the report found.
