What are the advantages of home based work to employees and companies?


“Work from Home”, the popular phrase of today, is the gift of Internet to many of us. Internet has played a vital role in the economic and financial development of the country, but such a convenient pack of money-making strategy is worth appreciating. The work from home, rather than being within the constrained sphere of job opportunities for housewives, retired personnel and self-dependent students; has marched ahead to the people from different sectors and fields.

It’s not only the liking of common man, but home based jobs are gaining warm welcome from different companies as well. Gone are the days, when companies used to call a person for the personal interview. The era has changed to emails, right from sending resume to video-conferencing the interview and approving the scanned document. The employer gets his task accomplished without even having a sight of his employee. Looking closely, the employer and the employee, gain equally via this means.

From the employer point of view, they don’t require a large office space, though their employee list mya be as long as a full-fledged company. A large business can be controlled with meagre staffing, in a small outlet. And thus the infrastructure also saves a lot of money. Right from the furnishings to as small as the stationary utilization; everything cuts down the cost for the management. There wouldn’t be any demand for the transport of cafeteria type of facilities. Company might not show all its online employee during the tax computation, which though is a dishonest approach, but definitely a financial gain for the management. To their utmost relaxation, there wouldn’t be any employee union and sudden uprising demands or strikes to hamper the work. Also, the company doesn’t require to check for the leaves and other added benefits for its online employees.

Coming to the other side, the employees; they enjoy an equal amount of freedom, with their pockets filling up from time to time. A person has freedom of his personal life, which doesn’t get affected by his job. He enjoys being his own boss, without anyone hovering over his head to check his interim reports and performance. All that matters is the final output, the way he presents his completed assignment.

No less charming is his time flexibility, advocating ample time to every member of the family and friends. This flexibility often ends in an increased productivity as compared to a regular employee. Being a regular employee, one needs to pin down self as per the clock, setting up alarm to wake from the unrefreshing sleep and dragging oneself to work. Oppositely, working from home gives the time period of 24 hours, that is round the clock, to choose a more comfortable time to perform the work with utmost concentration, determination and perfection at the least possible time. This way the work efficiency of the person increases and helps to fulfil the target before time.

Again, travelling is a matter of great concern, especially in the metropolitan cities. Facing huge traffic jams, heavy traffic, dragging vehicle itself makes a person lethargic. This undoubtedly affects the performance of that individual and indirectly the net productivity of the company. In case he takes up with the company transport, still a slow moving traffic is no more than a havoc. Health is also a concern with people commuting long distances daily. Person not only gets tired and withered with the travel, but also gets exposed to the unhealthy environment surrounded by pollution.

Nevertheless, the tax computation is not only the plus factor for the companies, but also for the employees who might not show their income. Also the person might not be confines to a single job. Working at home paves way to join multiple vacancies at the same time.

Though, all the way we have discussed the benefits of working from home, still it’s not all that easy to draw the line of demarcation between professional and personal lives.it is difficult to be focussed and carry on with the task without a hunter on the back. It’s always a cheer to work in the company of many people, rather than working alone. Still, overcoming these is not impossible. The positivity in this job is so attractive and lucrative, that anyone hardly could look to its negativity. So, lets fasten our seat belts and gear up to “Work from Home”.
