No shit. When I don't have to worry about 10 people a day walking into my office just to bullshit for a hour or two I can get a lot more work done.
When I was in-office daily I probably got at best around 2 hours of work done a day. The rest of the time I was in pointless meetings that should have been email and people randomly coming into my office to waste my time.
Being fully remote, I am easily getting a week's worth of work done in a day or two and my schedule is extremely flexible. If I want to take a break to go for a walk or to do the dishes there is no ass-in-chair manager counting how long I am away from my desk. They see the work is getting done so they dont care.

In an interview with the Times, Jonathan Reynolds said employers "need to judge people on outcomes and not a culture of presenteeism".
Labour is poised to unveil its Employment Rights Bill, which includes measures such as a right to "disconnect" outside working hours, a ban on zero-hours contracts and allowing workers to compress their contracted hours into fewer working days.
Business groups have raised concerns about the plans, warning it could push up the cost of hiring staff and have the unintended consequence of ending overtime.
