More than three-quarters (78%) of those who worked from home in some capacity said that being able to work from home gave them an improved work life balance.
Advantages…
- Flexibility and agility
- Increased productivity
- Increased staff motivation
- Improved staff health and wellbeing
- Financial benefit
- Convenience
- Better work/life balance
- Less sickness absences
Disadvantages…
- Working from home doesn’t suit everyone
- Staff feeling isolated
- Difficulty monitoring performance
- Home distractions
- Potential burnout
- Cost of working from home
- Problems with staff development
- Information security risk
- Decreased staff morale
- Poor broadband speeds
Hybrid working approach…
A shift towards home working doesn’t mean employees have to work only at home. Often splitting time between home and the workplace is the most productive solution and you may want the home worker to attend meetings to keep them fully involved and informed.
Well done Dan Jones
