“Today I work from home.” You open the office chat and see that a couple of colleagues have had an unforeseen situation and decide to work from home. What was unthinkable a few years ago is now something that is barely given importance thanks to the new hybrid work model that the vast majority of companies have adopted. This new way of working is so widely accepted that, According to a report by IDC, 100% of the companies surveyed have adopted or are planning to adopt a hybrid work model.
Although in recent months there has been talk that teleworking has its days numbered and that more and more companies are promoting strictly in-person work, nothing could be further from the truth. Teleworking or the hybrid format is here to stay, and the data is the best reflection. Companies like Lenovo are some of those that have promoted remote work the most with a huge portfolio of equipment for each company and each worker.
75% of employees claim to be more productive working from home
At the company level, by 2024 it is expected that companies that have invested in tools to promote a hybrid or one hundred percent remote work model, will increase your profits by 20%. But on the part of the employees, the preference is also clear. 75% of employees surveyed say they are even more productive working from home.
