The onset of COVID-19 in 2019 brought with it a slew of issues at the personal, economic, social, and mental levels. COVID–19 has proven to result in increased stress, loneliness, anxiety, and depression particularly among people already dealing with health issues. While the impact of the virus has been studied extensively, the impact of the one variable of working from home especially in a country like India with a predominantly rigid culture has been missing. Hence, the research focused on understanding the relationship between working from home and stress as well as burnout among full-time employees, particularly in the millennial age band. The research found that there is a strong positive correlation between stress and burnout where an increase in one leads to an increase in the other as well. The research also found that gender differences exist, but this is particularly in stress levels with women reporting that they feel more stressed out than their male counterparts. The research also observed that the working from home experience has been a mixed bag of ups and downs for mist however, 80% of people are still keen on continuing to work from home for at least a part of the workweek even post coronavirus.
