A recent survey found that less than a third of leaders have a long-term remote work strategy. This needs to change, especially as more companies begin to look at remote work as a potential permanent arrangement for some employees.Â
According to the survey, smaller firms are less likely than larger companies to be planning for the future, even though half of them expect the percentage of their employees permanently working from home to increase in the near future.Â
Key considerations that leaders and companies need to take into account in their long-term remote work strategy include: employee productivity, company benefits, loneliness and mental health of employees, burnout, technology support, corporate culture, and communication and collaboration.
