10 companies embracing hybrid work and how they're doing it

COVID has proven that employees can be productive while working remotely and many businesses are choosing to continue that way.

The biggest benefit of remote work is opening your business up to a wider talent pool. It also reduces your operating costs and cuts down employee absenteeism.
