Remote workers need reliable, secure environments to thrive
Today, businesses must take a proactive approach to remote worker enablement and leverage solutions that help remote workers thrive no matter where they are working.
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, organizations were already trending toward the work-from-home model. In fact, a 2019 report on the State of Remote Work concluded that ‘remote work is here to stay.” The pandemic of 2020 showed many businesses that not only is a remote worker model possible, but it’s also actually more beneficial in some cases.
