Working remotely in Spain: which companies are the best?
Teleworking is a modality that is increasingly in demand when looking for a job opportunity, as a result of the flexibility and work-life balance it offers workers. However, which companies are the best to practice this new way of working?
In this article, we will analyse the benefits of working remotely, the main organisations for doing so in Spain and some practices that you should bear in mind when looking for this type of job offer.
Advantages of teleworking
This way of working has benefits for the workers and the company. Some of them are:
- Better work-life balance: the reduction of commuting allows you to have more time and manage it in such a way that you can make productive use of it in your day-to-day work and family life.
- Access to global opportunities: the ease of working from home allows you to reduce geographical barriers and, therefore, to be able to apply for any job in the world.
- Cost reduction: both the worker and the company save costs with this type of work, as it avoids the transport and expenses derived from the accommodation of furniture and a physical space in which to work.
- Flexibility: some companies offer 100% flexible teleworking policies, allowing the worker to set the hours that best suit them, as long as they meet the company’s objectives.
