HOW TO ESTABLISH BETTER GUIDELINES FOR REMOTE WORKERS

The number of companies with partial or entire workforces working remotely is increasing steadily, with some predicting that, by 2020, 50 percent of employees will work from a location other than their organization’s office. This growth in remote work can be tied to a variety of factors ranging from rapidly evolving technology to shifting managerial mindset. This flexibility is an incentive for both employers and employees. It decreases real estate cost and increases employee productivity, health, and well-being. Organizations who offer remote work options are able to attract workers outside of their primary market and retain employees who must move to support a spouse’s career, care for aging parents, or any other number of reasons.
