Having a Remote and Hybrid Work Policy
November 1, 2022
Organization policy for remote and hybrid (remote/onsite) work is an essential tool that promotes equity across an organization and increases productivity. It keeps everyone on the same page. And such guidelines help employees successfully navigate the boundary between their work life and home life.
Remote and hybrid work policy should cover:
-
Technology and equipment to be used
-
When employees are on and off the clock
-
How they should communicate
-
Cybersecurity protocols
-
The presence of monitoring software and other supervision
-
The private use of equipment
-
Who is eligible to work remotely
Remote and hybrid work are here to stay, and organizations that treat this new approach with the same attention to detail afforded to traditional onsite work are positioning themselves and their employees for success.
HR can help bridge the gap between remote and onsite team members with clear policy and support for all employees.
