Working from an office VS Working from home...
Category General
The effects of the Covid-19 pandemic has seen companies making bold decisions in terms of having their staff work from home.
For many staff members, working from home has become the new norm, and the office culture, which is one of the most essential elements of the business' character has been set aside.
In some instances, working from home may be easier than for others. If you are self-disciplined and have a quiet and suitable area in your home that you could work from, then it may suit you and your lifestyle. There are however a couple of reasons why an office is still important to have, even if some or most of your staff are working remotely.
- Business culture - An office creates and manifests relationships in the work environment that are essential to promote the values and goals that the company stands for.
- Growth - An office creates a platform for people to interact and learn from each other in the most direct way.
- Professionalism - Having an office or an official address for your business creates a good impression on your clients.
- Free from distractions - An office ensures that staff can work in an environment free from distractions that are usually caused by pets or children at home.
- Increased productivity- In many cases it has been proven that administrative processes are handled quicker in an office where you have a dedicated team working together to solve problems or expedite tasks.
Even now, whilst we are in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, we still receive numerous commercial enquiries because people have realised the value of having a dedicated place to work from.
