The remote friendly approach is a work management organization that combines the advantages of remote work with the possibility of working in the office, thus offering more flexibility to employees. This approach recognizes that remote work can be a valuable option, while maintaining the availability of on-site workspaces for those who need them.
Compared to remote first where remote work is preferred, to the office first approach which prefers on-site work, and full remote which focuses on 100% remote work, remote friendly seeks a balance between these different practices. It is particularly suitable for companies that recognize the value of remote work, but also want to maintain a physical presence in the office for certain specific activities, as is the case for many tech companies, for example.
In a remote friendly organization, employees have the freedom to choose their place of work each week according to their needs and preferences. They can opt for remote work when they want to work from home, whether for reasons of comfort, concentration, or to manage personal responsibilities. At the same time, the employer maintains equipped offices to maintain the company spirit, for those who prefer on-site work, whether for meetings, team projects, or simply to vary their work environment.
For example, a senior developer working remotely around Paris can meet other employees at the company headquarters once a week to continue developing a group project.
To support this hybrid approach, remote friendly companies invest in quality technologies that ensure a smooth and productive remote work experience. They implement online communication tools, applications for collaborating in a virtual meeting room, project management tools, clouds to find all the necessary data on the web, etc.
The goal is to allow the manager and their team to stay connected, to work effectively with customers, regardless of their physical location.
Remote friendly has many advantages. It offers flexibility that promotes a balance between professional and personal life and improves employee satisfaction. This work model also allows the establishment of a recruitment area for future permanent employees that can extend internationally and not only in France. In addition, the company can reduce its needs for physical office space. Each user can have a credit of 4 days per month of presence in the office to place as they wish. With the help of data on the occupation of workspaces, significant savings on costs can then be achieved.
The remote friendly approach offers a compromise that meets the varied needs of employees while leveraging the benefits of remote work. It embodies flexibility and adaptability in a constantly evolving world of work, where technology allows employees to stay connected and productive, regardless of their choice of workplace.
