Today many employers and employees are interested in maintaining the trend of remote work. In fact, according to a global publication, 98% of full-time workers surveyed said they would like to work remotely at least part-time. Given this, it's safe to say that remote work is here to stay.
Some workers consider themselves fully remote, meaning they never go to an office, while others follow a hybrid model. Hybrid workers split their time between the office and remote workplaces. This allows them to enjoy many of the benefits of remote work, while maintaining a physical connection to the office.
Remote and hybrid work styles are most popular among workers ages 24 to 35, as well as those who have completed higher levels of education. In 2024, the top industries for remote work include IT, marketing, accounting and finance, project management, medical and healthcare, human resources and recruiting, and customer service.
In a recent survey conducted by Indeed, workers identified a wide range of benefits of remote and hybrid work. These included saving time and money, not having to commute, a better work-life balance and increased productivity. Similarly, employers have found that allowing remote and hybrid work improves morale, attracts top talent, and reduces costs, turnover, and absenteeism.
However, remote and hybrid work also presents challenges. The survey also identified a number of drawbacks, including less collaboration, lack of camaraderie and less access to leadership. Remote work also requires a high level of self-discipline and can leave workers feeling isolated, overwhelmed and disconnected.
Added to this is the ability to choose the perfect tools:"We know that for professionals who work remotely, choosing the right laptop is essential. We recommend models such as our Swift, Spin or Aspire lines, which stand out for their long battery life, allowing you to work for hours without depending on a plug. With a light weight and compact design, they are ideal for easily moving from home to a cafe or library."Portability does not sacrifice performance, ensuring that our users not only work efficiently, but also comfortably in any environment ," highlights Acer.
