Up to 5m may 'work from home
|
|
Around five million people could be missing from work one day next month as National Work from Home Day takes place. It will enable employees to try out "better" working practices such as flexible working, remote working, mobile working and working from home, all to promote a better work-life balance. Remote Employment, a web-based company, is inviting companies across the UK to allow their employees to work flexibly from home. Founder and managing director, Ken Sheridan, believes such a situation will benefit businesses and the country as a whole. "The recent emergence of 'virtual jobs' and 'virtual communities' is changing the way companies attract and retain skilled employees. "Smarter organisations reduce employment costs by adopting ‘remote working’ as a regular employment solution." It is hoped contact centre workers will be given the opportunity to join in. US researchers have predicted one third of its contact centre employees will be working from home by 2015 but the idea is yet to flourish in the UK.
