 Increased productivity

 Contrary to employer concerns, remote work environments often result in   increased productivity. By creating a comfortable and distraction-free workspace at   home, workers can achieve higher levels of productivity compared to traditional   office settings.

 Savings on equipment

 In remote work scenarios, it is common for remote workers, especially freelancers   who are self-employed and work on an as-needed basis, to bear the expenses of   their own remote working equipment.

 Talent pool

 Remote hiring enables employers to select top-tier talent regardless of   geographical constraints. It offers the flexibility to hire individuals worldwide or   restrict to specific locations or time zones, depending on business requirements.

 Less commuting time resulting in less   absenteeism

 Remote workers often exhibit reduced absenteeism compared to their office-based   counterparts. The absence of commuting allows them to start their day early, and   without the rush to catch a train, they are more willing to stay an extra few minutes   to complete tasks, benefiting both workers and employers.

 Employee retention

 You might not think it, but there are some great advantages for hiring remote   workers when it comes to the employee retention rate. This is due to a few reasons,

• You won’t lose employees if they move
• Employees are more likely to carry on working during pregnancy and early motherhood (even if they reduce their hours)
• Those hired will have more flexibility which is a big requirement for millennials in particulars

 Better mental health

 Approximately 82% of telecommuters experience lower stress levels compared to   in-house workers. This reduction in stress is essential for maintaining a productive   workforce, as high levels of stress contribute to mental health issues such as   anxiety and depression.

 Better work-life balance

 Remote jobs often offer flexible schedules, allowing workers to determine their own   start and end times as long as they meet their work requirements and achieve   positive outcomes. This level of control over their schedules is highly valuable, as it   enables them to better attend to personal needs alongside their professional   responsibilities.

 Save time

 Remote jobs offer more than just the elimination of commuting time; they grant   employees the freedom to control their schedules. This means individuals can   optimize their productivity according to their personal preferences, whether they   excel in the mornings or find their creativity peaks in the evenings. As long as team   members are unaffected and deadlines are met, remote workers enjoy the   flexibility to select their preferred working hours.

 Location

 One of the advantages of remote work for employees is the ability to work from any   location. This eliminates the need to be tied to a city that doesn't align with their   preferences or standards, and it also reduces the need for unnecessary travel.
