What are the benefits of remote-first working?
Recruit top talent
Being a remote-first company sets you apart by giving employees choice as to where they want to work. With the opportunity for remote work, it widens your talent pool, but having a physical office caters for those who enjoy being in the office, whether that be full-time or a couple of times per week.Cost savings
Having an office can be a costly expense, particularly if you’re located in larger cities, with fewer employees in the office and you’ll require a smaller space. It’s essential to be mindful of the security risks of working remotely; with the proper training and tools, this can be managed.Positive environmental impact
Working remotely may help reduce greenhouse gas emissions; someone who used to commute daily by car now works from home. Helping to also reduce traffic, particularly during rush hour, which has an effect on air quality and pollution.Increased productivity
Giving employees a choice on where they want to work allows them to decide where they work most productively - whether from the office, remotely or a combination of both.What companies offer remote-first work?
