If COVID did us any good itis that it forced us to live and work the digital life.

The office is no longer the only place to deliver a full day’s work.

Flexible work suddenly became a reality six years after legislation allowed for employers to engage with their employees on virtual working arrangements.

Companies now support working from home with support for the installation of high-speed Internet along with hardware and software relevant to their production.

A prime example is that of the business process outsourcing (BPO) industry with its thousands of on-premises staffers. That all changed with the spread of the virus in their close quarters. Now hundreds of these employees no longer have to journey to headquarters, thus lessening the possible virus spread.
