In the past year, many businesses were forced to adopt remote work. For many, it was a challenge. Some upgraded their technology to enable employees to work from home, and some had to adapt their business model and shift to online sales. Those that were successful with these changes have made a surprising discovery: remote work is better.
Large tech firms like Twitter found that the shift to remote work worked better for their business, and they decided to keep it. In May of last year, they told employees to work from home indefinitely. Now, they aren’t the only ones making the switch to remote work. A survey from Enterprise Technology Research found that the percentage of workers permanently switching to remote work is expected to double in 2021. Erik Bradley, Chief Engagement Strategist for ETR, said,” The productivity metric is proving that remote work is working.”
