BENEFITS OF REMOTE JOB
1. BETTER WORK-LIFE BALANCE
Remote jobs come with flexible schedules, which means that workers can start and end their day as they choose, as long as their work is complete and leads to strong outcomes. This control over your work schedule can be invaluable when it comes to attending to the needs of your personal life.
Whether it’s balancing school schedules, medical appointments, and errands, or attending an online fitness class in the morning, or even being home for a contractor can all be done a little more easily when you work from home.
2. LESS COMMUTE STRESS
The average one-way commuting time in the India is 100 minutes—that’s nearly an hour each day spent getting to and from work, and it really adds up. According to the research, commuters spend about 100 hours commuting and 41 hours stuck in traffic each year. Some “extreme” commuters face much longer commute times of 90 minutes or more each way.
3. LOCATION INDEPENDENCE
One of the considerable benefits of working from home is having access to a broader range of job opportunities that aren’t limited by geographic location. This can be especially helpful for job seekers living in rural communities and small towns where there may not be many available local positions.
4. MONEY SAVINGS
People who work from home can save between 1 Lac to 1.5 Lac per year. Fuel, car maintenance, transportation, parking fees, a professional wardrobe, lunches bought out, and more can all be reduced or eliminated from your spending entirely. These savings add up and put more money back into your pocket.
5. POSITIVE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
The 3.9 million employees who work from home reduce greenhouse gas emissions by the equivalent of taking more than 600,000 cars off the road for an entire year, according to the reports.
6. A CUSTOMIZABLE OFFICE
Being able to create a comfortable home office is an excellent benefit of remote work. Whether you simply want a more ergonomic chair, or you have health issues that lead to needing specialized office equipment, you can set up your home office and make it whatever you want.
7. INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY AND PERFORMANCE
It is found in 2019 that 65% of professionals think they would be more productive working remotely than in a traditional office, with 49% saying they go to their home or home office when they really need to buckle down and get work done.
8. A HAPPIER, HEALTHIER WORK LIFE
Remote, flexible workers tend to be happier and more loyal employees, in part because working from home has been shown to lower stress, provide more time for hobbies and interests, and improve personal relationships, among other things.
