What is the future of remote working1 min read
WATCH!
Description : According to a study by Strategy Analytics, over 40% of people will work remotely by 2020. This is already a serious trend in the US, especially with the influence of some large, international companies. This is what social networking expert Etienne Yanev said on Bloomberg TV Bulgaria's "In Development" with host Velko Kamenov.
The new trend is remote working, and it contrasts with the standard workflow that takes place in the 9 to 17 hour time slot, the guest said. "It also includes the ability for people to work from anywhere in the world through digital communication between them."
"Companies that have embraced this way of working have staff from all over the world. They are not limited to specialists from one particular market, but for the employees themselves it means they can build their own working environment, being at home, close to family or on a nice, exotic beach."
What are the opportunities and risks of remote working? Is there also a reverse trend - companies returning staff who work remotely back to the office? Which are the sectors that are most suitable for this type of work?.
