Before getting into the details as to why ‘Hiring the Remote Workers is the best option for some industries during the CoronaVirus epidemic’ let’s analyze the recent impacts of this Virus.

It all started to change when the WHO (World Health Organization) declared CoronaVirus, a global emergency. It is a serious outbreak and the statistics revealed by the WHO provide evidence for the same. Statistics have revealed that CoronaVirus has affected more than 150 countries and territories resulting in more than 7000 deaths as of 16th March 2020. As a result, many public places and even some cities have been quarantined by the orders of the Government to prevent the spread. The day-to-day routine and activities like purchasing groceries, attending events, traveling, etc. have become a challenge for people. However, this virus has not just affected society, but the corporate sectors as well.

People cannot follow regular office and business routines. Getting the work virtually done is not an option that every industry can follow. As such, the business operations of various important industries have been affected on an international scale.

GLOBAL ECONOMY UNDER STRESS

As a consequence of the CoronaVirus Epidemic, some of the following major industries have experienced a huge downfall, resulting in downgraded health of the global economy:
▪️ Manufacturing
▪️ Construction
▪️ F&B (Food and Beverages)
▪️ FMCG (Fast-Moving Consumer Good)
▪️ Transportation
▪️ Hotel
▪️ Travel and Tourism
▪️ Events
▪️ Finance
▪️ IT (Information Technology)

GLOBAL ECONOMY UNDER STRESS

Most of these aforesaid industries except ‘IT’ demand the physical presence of the workforce on the premises to get the work done. Since it has been advised to avoid places with a crowd, these industries cannot function in their full capacity without their employees’ presence at the site/workplace, leading to negative impressions on productivity and revenue figures. However, remote working is an option that can help some specific businesses.

POSSIBILITIES OF REMOTE WORKING
In the case of the IT sector, it is still possible to hire human resources and keep them on the work cycle without having their physical presence in the offices. In other words, it is possible to evidence the practice of remote working in the IT industry. The majority of the IT functions like Development, Quality Testing, Data Analysis, APIs, Digital Marketing, Content Marketing, etc. can be done from any corner of the world.

Hence, the outbreak from Corona has the least effect on IT operations. Hiring the best and most efficient talent can still help the IT industry to function in a smooth and compelling manner.

WHY REMOTE WORKING?
Remote Working will prevent the employees from getting into any form of physical contact with each other. This will automatically help to prevent the possible spread of the CoronaVirus infection. But Remote Working is a viable option for many other cases as well. Let’s have a quick glimpse of the benefits that remote working serves, for both employers and employees.

1) FLEXIBILITY:
Employees are more productive when offered flexible working hours. They can work according to their own comfort and deliver good results in favor of the organization.

2) OFFICE SPACE:
Hiring more workforce requires more office space. But when remote workers are hired, then an organization is not required to make further expenditures for extra space.

3) TALENT RESOURCES:
Sometimes, employees with great experience and robust skills may not be able to work with an organization because of distance. Hence, Remote Working eliminates the location barrier and provides an opportunity to hire the best.

4) COST SAVINGS:
When employees work from a remote location, then the need for extra furniture or a computer does not arise at all. It helps companies to save costs and increase their profit margins.

5) CONCENTRATION:
When employees work from a remote location, they do not encounter any disturbance that they are more likely to interact with if working in an office. Work done with concentration is a quality job.

LOOKING FOR A REMOTE WORKING PARTNER?
The Corona Virus outbreak may have affected the work competency of many companies, but Remote Working is an option that can help. Also, there are plenty of other reasons, (as already explained above) to partner with an efficient remote worker. It is like a deal where both the parties i.e. an employer and employee benefit simultaneously. If you are in the search of Remote Workers, then APPWRK IT Solutions is an optimum choice for you.
