About<\/h3>\n

The Covid-19 virus outbreak in late 2019 - early 2020\nled to a surge of remote working, where the majority of EU white collar\nworkforce was compelled to work in an out-of-office setting; this comes to a\nsharp contrast compared to past years, where just 5-10% of EU employees have\nbeen working remotely. Nevertheless, such a rise in remote working has not been\nunprecedented; there has been a steady, yet minimal, increase through the years\nin the numbers of remote workers (esp. in the ICT sector), with a similar spike\nduring the 2002-2003 SARS outbreak and other similar cases of business\ninterruptions. The difference this time is that the increase in remote working\ndue to Covid-19 virus outbreak has been fueled both by more flexible and\ndecentralized management practices, as well as more widely available\ntechnologies. Moreover, people are more used to it, be it for work or for\npersonal communication. This led to an immediate and creative adaptation of\nworkplaces to a remote work mode, where in many occasions the entire workforce\nworked from home. REMOWA project\u2019s outputs will be some tools for responding to\nthis challenge.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
