Evaluate Benefit to the Company
Determine Office Functions
Acknowledge the positive outcomes to the company as a whole, not just individual employees.
Determine what needs your physical office space will fulfill in the post COVID landscape.
• Access a larger talent pool by expanding your candidate search outside your local geographical area • Achieve cost savings from modified office square footage and tapping into salary expectations from less inflated labor markets • Increase employee output with reported gains in productivity and reduced absenteeism at your office53
• Conduct surveys to determine the tasks your employees are conducting in the office: brainstorming, team building, meetings, heads down work • Analyze if your built environment supports employee productivity and post COVID work styles • Assess how free address desking can improve flexibility and efficient use of square footage
Evaluate Viability
Analyze Future Vision
Assess which employees align with remote work by auditing time spent in the office along with job responsibilities.
Analyze if remote work supports or hinders your company vision, values, and goals.
• Determine the number of hours each role spends in the office per week • Evaluate each employee’s tasks to understand how often they visit clients, travel for work, and are physically present in the office • Collect accurate data using furniture sensors and time tracking apps • Consider that some employees want the structure correlated with going into the office regardless of their role
• Analyze how remote work aligns with company goals, such as employee attraction & retention, and innovation • Consider obstacles remote work could present to achieving your vision or desired company culture • Ensure remote employees understand their connection to the company’s vision to maximize engagement

Assess Technology
Adopt a company wide set of technology tools to make remote work feasible, productive and successful. • Assess your current technology infrastructure, employee connectivity, and cybersecurity • Evaluate beneficial technology tools such as Office 365 for internal communication and video conferencing, Donut to boost camaraderie, and cloud based file storage • Implement a cybersecurity training program
Weigh the Challenges
Weigh the positive attributes of remote work against potential negative impacts for your company • Audit your organization’s experience with remote work during the COVID pandemic and determine if solutions are available for the issues you encountered • Outline additional costs or liability you will encounter, such as an employee home office allowance, responsibility towards employee injury, or damage to company equipment occurring at home • Examine the impact remote work could have on company culture and employee mental health
