Companies, increasingly aware of the benefits of providing their workforce with more flexibility, are experimenting with the idea of allowing more employees to become remote workers. Even more traditional organizations are starting to see that there are considerable advantages to allowing staff to telecommute at least a certain number of days during the week or month. A 2017 report by Owl Labs found that Companies that support remote work have 25% lower employee turnover than companies that don’t. Not to mention, employees who work remotely, at least once per month, are 24% happier than those who never work remotely. It’s also important to note that this is not merely a function of employees wanting to work from home. Companies are finding that they can get more focus and productivity from remote staff, and can cut down on the overhead required in maintaining a larger office space.
