Going to work costs 30% of our pay

 Millions of people spend a third of their take home pay on costs linked to going to work.

A typical family forks out 30% of its disposable income on commuting, lunches, childcare and clothing.

The bill for these essentials can amount to £5,796 per person, almost a third of the average net individual income of £18,897, says research from home shopping firm Kleeneze.

The firm says the only people who can avoid this cost are Britain’s 680,000-strong army of homeworkers.
