Already practiced before the COVID-19 crisis, home working has become a much more common habit for many workers in recent months. Some companies, forced to note the good functioning of this work organization, are even considering the implementation of flex office within their offices.
Flex office is about the pooling of goods that allow employees to work on a daily basis, it also includes teleworking. Indeed, the staff of a company following flex office practices will not necessarily go to their workplace every day.
How can collaboration between employees working remotely and those present at their workplace be organized? How can we ensure that all employees continue to work under the best possible conditions? How to reorganize life at work? We explore these questions with you in this article.
Has your company made the decision to implement home working on a regular basis? It is important to make sure you take several things into account when developing the rules related to this new way of working.
The first thing to do is to distinguish between the different functions. Which functions can telework be considered for? What are the profiles whose daily tasks cannot be carried out anywhere other than at the workplace?
Next comes the question of the number of teleworking days granted to each employee. This number may vary depending on the position held by the employee. Another point that will need to be mentioned is whether the telework days are fixed in advance and recurring each week or whether they can be taken according to the wishes of the workers.
Finally, it will be important to establish whether or not the company decides to give a home working allowance to its employee. If you wish to contribute to these costs generated by teleworking, you may decide to provide equipment to your employees so that they can telework optimally. You may also decide to pay your employees a sum to compensate for their use of the Internet, electricity, and/or heating.
