Remote working has become more and more common in many countries. What are the advantages and disadvantages of remote working?

Over the past few years, the way of working has dramatically changed due to the advancement of digital technologies, which enables people to

work

remotely and provide enormous benefits to companies and employees.

However

, online

work

also

contributes to some drawbacks. In

this

essay, I will elaborate on the pros and cons of remote working in detail. The

first

advantage of distance working is a reduction in the marginal cost of production. As it allows officers to

work

without offices, the company reduce the cost of renting offices and electrical bills.

Moreover

, it is

also

beneficial for workers because they are able to

work

at

home

, which they do not have to waste their money on transportation. To illustrate

this

, due to the measure to restrict the spreading of Covid-19, most organizations must force employees to

work

at

home

at the rate of 90 %, which some companies decide to continues

this

approach despite the ending of the pandemic because they can save a huge of money and get the same result of implementation.

On the other hand

, some disadvantages can be found from

this

type of

work

.

Firstly

, the

relationship

among colleagues become weak. As the

relationship

in the office can be only formed by face to face activities including having lunch together, drinking coffee together, and brainstorming in person. All these activities can make the

relationship

closer and can improve the efficacy of working.

Secondly

, working from

home

can contribute to physical and mental stresses among persons. Due to working alone and glancing at the screen for a long time, officers' eyes are harmed by blue light from the screen, and brains are more tired than working on-site. According to the published research, more than 90 % of workers prefer to

work

at the office as they are more relaxed and have less stress compared to working at

home

. In conclusion, it is apparent that nowadays online working plays an important role in routine job owing to saving cost and promoting conveniences for both employees and employers, but it

also

has drawbacks

such

as accumulating stresses and worsening the

relationship

among officers. To balance

this

, the companies should handle the suitable one for the particular

work

.
