Open offices in Greece that cooperate with Digital Nomads Observatory

After the pandemic, more and more people choose to work remotely. This new type of work is a consequence of Covid-19 pandemic.

However, this type of work is not limited to office space. On the contrary, there is flexibility in the choice of workplace and destination where someone will choose to work. This flexibility is the key factor in shaping a new trend at work, but also in travel.

 

Advantages of remote working

Many workplaces remained closed during the lockdown period. Thus, employees were forced to provide their work services from home. When some restrictions were lifted, many employees returned back to office. But there are those who continue to enjoy the benefits of working remotely.

Some advantages of working remotely for employees are:

• Better management of their work and personal life.
• Work in a familiar and comfortable environment without negative distractions.
• Less stress and improved lifestyle.
• Less expenses on travel, business trips, meals, clothing, and even childcare in the case of working parents.
• Providing work from anywhere in the world and combining with leisure travel.
• Save time on commuting to and from work.

Not only employees take advantage of remote work but also employers. Some benefits for them are:

• Lower rental costs as employees do not need office spaces and can work from anywhere in the world.
• Reduced expenses for providing meals and commute or public transportation for employees, for equipment, maintenance and office cleaning.
• Hiring associates from other countries so that they will join the company without the need of physical presence.
• Boost employee productivity by reducing time on commuting and dedicating themselves to work.
• Get rid of unpleasant situations that may occur in the office, such as harassment and malicious comments.

With the proper organization and cooperation, companies that employ remote workers can see benefits to their development. From the other side employees will have a better quality of life and will be more efficient in their work. It is a situation that benefits both parties.

 

The new trend of “coworking”

As mentioned above, remote workers can choose any destination they wish to perform their duties.

Accommodations that aim to attract this working group offer various facilities. These include extended stays and in-room working amenities for better work efficiency.

In addition to accommodation, there are other spaces where remote employees can work. Among them are the “coworking spaces” in tourist areas. These are places where remote workers are gathering. There they have the opportunity to work without distractions, with other people who have similar employment status.

 

Coworking spaces in Greece

Greece is an attractive travel destination. It meets the needs of people who work remotely and travel at the same time. Providers of coworking spaces can take advantage of the privileged position of the country and fill the gap between business and leisure travel. In fact, the introduction of a special visa for remote workers can help in the whole process. They can now enter the country and work with this special visa.
