The corona pandemic has been an integral part of our everyday lives for two years now. Constant wearing of masks, hand disinfection and regular testing have become normal. But as it is the case for everything also this topic must be evaluated from different points of view.
Although COVID-19 has confronted us with major private and professional challenges, it has also led to or at least accelerated some positive changes. Finally, purchases in the small bakery next door can also be paid by credit card. And most people also keep the prescribed 1.5 meter distance and no longer get too close to you at the checkout point in the supermarket. Another advantage has also become more relevant for employers and employees: home office and mobile working.
What at first glance seems to be the same, ultimately differs in one point that is very important for employees today: flexibility. But what is actually the significant difference between the two terms?
While "home office" means to work outside the office but from a fixed workplace, that is usually located within one's own four walls, employees with a "mobile working regulation" enjoy more freedom. And since the well-being of employees as well as employee satisfaction enjoy top priority at PHOENIX MEDIA, the range of mobile working options has now been expanded enormously.
But how does this look like in reality? In fact, mobile working at PHOENIX MEDIA means that all employees - if the work area allows it - can freely decide from where they would like to carry out their daily work. Of course, this can also be one of our offices located in Stuttgart, Vienna, Berlin or, for those who would like to enjoy a little more sun, also in Barcelona. Everyone must ensure that the workplace conditions are comparable to those in the offices. The respective teams are responsible for creating sufficient attendance times.
Even with the firm belief that direct personal exchange is essential, promotes cohesion and strengthens the special family-like corporate culture at PHOENIX MEDIA, it was important to listen to the valuable feedback from all colleagues. The opportunity to work from home is not a pandemic-related innovation, but has always been an offer that the entire team gladly and gratefully makes use of.
And the experiences from the last two years have clearly shown that efficiency is also guaranteed with mobile working. That’s why all employees at PHOENIX MEDIA enjoy the fullest confidence that every customer project will be a success. With even more flexible working time models, an even better work-life balance and the greatest possible relief during this very stressful time can be ensured.
