Remote working, help or hindrance ? Part II

There are many ways in which IT and Telecomms systems can be made available to the workforce, but we are exploring the concept today that although these services are of obvious benefit to the employer, the employee may not agree!

Many employers relish the opportunity to have work performed outside of normal working hours, effectively for free in many cases.

Our studies have shown that although the above is true, the benefits of being connected are seen as worth while, and the short comings are seen as not so much of a problem. Employees in small businesses are generally concientious, and having the ability to alay a worry about completing a task, or seeing a timely communication is very well received, when 'out of hours'

So our findings are simply that remote working is not only relatively simple to achieve for small businesses, with the provision of better office connectivity, a good IT support company (like @hjsessentia) and remote working solutions.... everyone is happy!

Remote working, help or hindrance ?

In today's society we are very often expected to be available all the time, and to this end our company spends a lot of time installing systems that allow the workforce to be able to get to all of their critical information, from anywhere.

With the unstoppable marching of the Internet providing the well used term 'Cloud' computing, the level of always on, constantly available service is much higher.

But do employees want this? The benefits to the employer are obvious, but is this type of tech a good thing for the worker.?

We will be discussing this in our next post.
