Remote work
What is remote work?
Remote work is the term used when a worker employed by an organisation works outside of the traditional office environment. A remote worker might work from home and be located in the same state or country as the office, or they might operate out of a different country altogether.
Why are remote work policies becoming more prevalent?
With the advent and advancements of video conferencing technology, it is now easier than ever before to work remotely. It is also helpful that remote workers can be just as productive as their colleagues who operate out of the office.
It’s also important to note that remote work has been found to help employees achieve work-life balance. By being able to devote time to their personal and professional lives, employee wellbeing increases and so does morale, all of which plays a large role in producing great work.
