HOW TELECOMMUTING CAN HELP WITH THE CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK: DOES YOUR OFFICE HAVE THE RIGHT TECHNOLOGY TO KEEP YOUR EMPLOYEES HEALTHY AND STRESS-FREE?
Inside the U.S. there are now hundreds of people who have been infected with the Coronavirus as citizens from coast to coast are fearing what may lie ahead with the biggest global health pandemic in almost 20 years. Earlier in the month Forbes Online published an article “Teleworking During The Coronavirus Outbreak – Could It Save Lives?” which outlined “the 5 key success factors that organizations need to keep in mind, either when considering a new remote-working policy for contingencies or ensuring that current policies work to deliver results.” Among those 5 factors was this:
“Digital technologyIt is one of the most vexing scenarios: gearing up for a video or long-distance teleconference and experiencing sub-standard technology, difficulty connecting, micro-cuts, and so on. As a number of parallel platforms have emerged in addition to, or with the aim of replacing e-mail, organizations are adopting them to different levels. Having a team-level agreement on which tool to use when, and the rules of communicating and responding to communication after hours is vital.”
Similarly, ComputerWorld last week published an article “Coronavirus (and 5G) will boost telecommuting, change our tech future” which highlighted similar points but focused on 5G technology as assisting with the improvements in tele-communications.
