The key benefits of working remotely
With the advent of the internet, came the ability to work remotely. This means that instead of being tied to a physical office space, you can now work from anywhere in the world.
Sounds great so far, right? And it is! There are many benefits to working remotely. In this blog post, we will explore some of those benefits in further detail.
Flexible work hours
One of the best parts about working remotely is the flexible hours. No longer are you tied to the 9-5 grind. You can now work when you are most productive, whether that means getting up early and getting a few hours of work done before everyone else wakes up, or working late into the night.
Of course, this flexibility does mean that you need to be more disciplined with your time management, but for many people, the trade-off is worth it.
No commute
Another great benefit of working remotely is that you don’t have to deal with a commute! This can save you both time and money. According to a 2017 study by Global Workplace Analytics, the average one-way daily commute in the United States is 26 minutes. That’s over 10 hours per month, or 120 hours per year! And that’s just for the average person.
If you live in a city with bad traffic, your commute could easily be twice as long. Not only do you get back all of that time by working remotely, but you also save money on things like gas, public transportation, and car maintenance.

Increased productivity
Interestingly enough, working remotely can actually lead to increased productivity. In a study conducted by Stanford University in 2012, they found that employees who worked from home increased their output by 13%.
The reason for this uptick in productivity is two-fold: firstly, there are fewer distractions when you’re not in an office full of people; and secondly, people who work from home tend to put in more hours than those who work in an office because they don’t have to waste time commuting.
Conclusion
There are many benefits to working remotely: from increased productivity and flexible hours to saving money on things like gas and car maintenance.
So if you’re looking for a job that will give you more freedom and flexibility, consider looking for a remote position! With so many businesses doing more and more online, there are plenty of opportunities out there for those who want to telecommute.
