Companies are increasingly providing employees with remote work, especially for specific roles that don’t require office presence (such as virtual assistants). The term “remote work” refers to a situation where your employee or team can work from an area other than the company’s headquarters. This could be at your home or in a coworking space.
Remote employees are able to work wherever they have access to the internet. This could be in the comfort of their home, a coworking or shared office space, or even the local cafe across the street. Remote jobs depend on online tools such as collaborative software, cloud-based storage and file management, conferencing apps and video calling.
A well-planned and organized onboarding process is vital to the success of a remote workforce, whether you’re onboarding the remote team for the first time or are a returning remote worker. This process should be inclusive of both the soft and technical abilities that your remote worker will need to succeed.
Aside from the obvious benefit of saving on overhead expenses Remote workforces can offer other benefits for your business. Some of these advantages include an easier schedule, increased productivity, and an increased engagement of your workforce. These benefits are largely due to the fact that employees are spending less time on commutes and spend more time doing the work they were hired for.
