[Company system] Remote work begins [Work style reform]

Hello, this is Sakashita from the Administration Department

At Beyond, we have recently started remote work

What is remote work?

Working from home or other locations rather than at a company office is called "remote work."

It is one of the work style reforms promoted by the government and is also known as "telework."

The benefits of remote work

1. No commute

You can avoid rush hour traffic and reduce stress caused by commuting,

A shorter commute saves you time and increases your productivity!

3. Facilitates preparation for business continuity and early recovery in the event of a disaster or emergency

In the event of transportation disruptions due to bad weather, earthquakes, etc

With remote work, you can work as usual without having to go to the office

You don't have to worry about getting caught in traffic jams

4. Employee productivity improves

This will eliminate small talk between employees and unnecessary meetings,

With fewer distractions to your work, you can concentrate on your work, which is expected to increase your productivity

5. Work-life balance

Commuting time is shorter and private time is increased

You'll have more time to spend with your hobbies and family, and you'll have a better work-life balance!

It also relieves the stress of rush hour commutes and rush hour commutes, which is expected to improve your health

Remote work challenges

1. Security needs to be strengthened

Because important business information may be exchanged,

We have implemented various security systems such as encryption and remote locking

Security needs to be strengthened

2. Communication becomes difficult

Since direct conversation is not possible, communication relies mainly on written media such as email and chat

If necessary, communication will be via telephone or video conferencing

The ability to write and communicate well, and to understand the thoughts of people who are not in front of you

You will need communication skills

3. It creates a sense of unfairness among employees

Depending on the nature of the work, some jobs may be difficult to work remotely

There is a possibility that a gap will emerge between employees who can work remotely and those who cannot

You need to be careful about this

4. Rules need to be established

Due to the issues mentioned above, each company must establish rules to some extent

Even at Beyond, I think this is still an issue

Choose a work style that suits your lifestyle!

As this is a system that has just begun, I think there will be many challenges and problems

In the future, we will be able to accommodate a variety of lifestyles

We will incorporate employee feedback and aim to make the company an even better place to work!
