Remote work is not new in the technology industry but has had to used on a mass scale in Europe and other countries now under lock-down due to the coronavirus pandemic. While not yet widely used in Taiwan, with the risk of office closures rising, Working From Home (WFH) is becoming an essential contingency that all companies need to be prepared to implement.

This webinar will examine best practices on how to prepare your business to work remotely. It will look into the details of available tools but also how to prepare staff and manage daily business routines in case everyone at your organisation needs to telecommute. Our webinar host and presenter will provide references to what is implemented at tech companies under lock-down in Europe and other global locations. After the presentation, there will be an interactive Q&A session.

Among other topics, this webinar will provide the following:

• An introduction to remote work in general
• An examination of the psychological impact on the remote worker and household members
• An introduction to WFH logistics, from headsets to conference and chat software options
• How to assure readiness for every staff member to work from home
• How to handle IT incidents and software issues
• Managing a remote day
• Other considerations such as labour law compliance
