Benefits of Teleworking for Employers

Technical Problems
The biggest challenge of adopting teleworking is technical glitches and problems with hardware or software and apps and also internet issues. This can hamper the productivity chain because unlike the traditional office there is no hands-on fixing of the problem by a professional technical team.
Security Concerns
Teleworking gives you the opportunity of working from anywhere across the globe. This means company assets and information are spread across different territories, often across countries. In such a case, security can be a big concern if employees use Wi-Fi in public places or store sensitive information on personal desktops, laptops, or other devices that are not well guarded.
Isolation and Loneliness
Teleworking gives employees more freedom, the downside of it is having no camaraderie with colleagues. Since there is not much social activity and not much scope of making friends and acquaintances at work, employees can become disoriented and lose interest in their work, leading to lower productivity.
Lack of Team Building
Team building activities like team lunches, team trips, or birthday celebrations at work, play an important role in motivating employees. Team building activities give individuals opportunities to get comfortable with other members of the team, so there is a better work connection for better productivity. Teleworking hinders team building as there is not much scope for colleagues to interact with each other on a personal level. This can lead to a feeling of the monotony of work, which will invariably lead to lower productivity.
Loss of Focus
Working from home can be overwhelming at times because one can’t always maintain that work-life balance perfectly. There might be other areas from the personal side that also need attention. Giving priority to work and making it the main focus might get sidelined. Also, just like an office, teleworking has its fair share of distractions
