What is remote work?
Remote working means that you carry out your work from a location outside the traditional office. This could be at home, on the road or abroad. This is made possible by all the new digital technologies of today, such as video meetings and tools to collaborate with such as slack.
This flexibility allows employees or freelancers to create a working environment that best suits their personal and professional needs. This can lead to increased productivity and satisfaction. With the large number of freelancers in the marketplace you increase access to global talent.

The growing success of remote working
The traditional business structure in which employees go to the office every day is slowly but surely beginning to give way to a more flexible approach: remote working. More and more companies are realising that offering the option to work remotely not only benefits employees, but also the company itself. Here are some examples of why remote working can contribute to the success of your business.
1. Access to global talent
By allowing remote working, companies increase their access to a global talent pool. They are no longer limited to hiring employees within a particular geographical location, but can look for freelancers who each have their own specialism. Because companies are no longer tied to location, this opens doors to a wide range of skills, perspectives and expertise, which can boost company innovation and growth. Moreover, hiring remote workers can lead to lower staffing costs, as companies do not have to focus on finding and maintaining physical office space.
2. Increased productivity and engagement
Many freelancers who work remotely report higher productivity and commitment to the organisation. They can adapt their working environment to their individual needs and work at times when they are most productive. Moreover, freelancers who work remotely are less bothered by distractions, which you often encounter in the office, promoting concentration and efficiency. This often results in a higher quality of work and increased satisfaction of the freelancers you employ.
3. Remote working becomes easy due to technological advances
Ongoing technological advances have greatly facilitated remote working. With the advent of powerful laptops, reliable internet connections and communication tools such as zoom or google meet, it is now possible to stay seamlessly connected, even remotely. This has led to a growing acceptance of remote working by employers. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic remote working gained momentum as organisations were forced to adjust their business models and allow employees to work from home. This mass adoption has shown that remote working is not only feasible, but can also boost productivity and efficiency.
