2020 brought a slew of changes to the world, and they’ve been extremely detrimental in terms of opening up new positions for work, as well as hitting some economic and contractor services really hard. Add that to the fact that cyberattacks have increased more than tenfold, and families have endured extreme hardship as businesses have crumbled, and it’s important to know that some of the work changes will carry forward into the new year.

However, there may be more freedom as businesses are opening up, even perhaps yours – but it’s still important that you do everything you can to keep it afloat. We’re going to talk about some things that are expected to happen this year as the new government changes occur. Don’t worry; we’re leaving all politics aside!

 

Businesses Need to Adopt Some In and Out of Office Work Changes to Harness Growth

 

Small and medium businesses need to follow these business trends:

 

1.    Remote Options Aren’t Leaving

This man with the great legs that is working from home is very accepting of getting the job done remotely and does not welcome any work changes at the present time.

The year 2020 opened up a lot of roles by allowing workers to work from home. Add that to the fact that there was a big boom in contracted work as well, and it’s easy to see that remote work opportunities need to stay in place, and even more may need to be added. Having someone on the outside looking in can increase growth while providing a level of flexibility that many workers are enjoying more than ever – and many never knew they could make a living doing so.

 

2.    In-Office Spaces Work Changes

One of the major work changes we'll see or may already see is the restructuring of offices and work spaces.

One of the major work changes we’ll see or may already see is the restructuring of offices and workspaces. We’ve already seen offices set up barriers in their lunchrooms and we’ve also seen a lot more space between workers. Now, where 2 or even 3 workers used to sit, there is only one. It’s work changes like these that will keep your business from getting shut down again.

Although the increase of work-from-home related jobs is in place and still increasing, you must think about restructuring your inner office. The days of the old cubicles and everyone sitting next to one another needs to go – your employees need to feel safe. Therefore, you must adjust to the new COVID-19 restrictions and regulations to ensure that people want to feel safe enough to work. This may include additional positions, such as sanitation tactics and teams, etc., for it to work right.

 

3.    Travelling May Still Be an Issue

If you travel for work you know that everything has changed in the past 10 months.

If you travel for work, you know that everything has changed in the past 10 months and your life has been a lot more complicated.

I don’t think that 2021 is going to make travel any easier. As a matter of fact, even with the new vaccines out there, there are still problems with the pandemic, and it’s hitting the airlines pretty hard. Travel as we knew it before (ultimate freedom for business travel) may be challenging, so you still need to adjust and have digital conferences and remote team meetings as you’ve been doing for 2020.

4.    Outsourcing is Being Encouraged to Stop

Many businesses are now trying to eliminate outsourcing certain services and trying to do everything in-house. Work changes like these are never as easy as they sound, but they aren't impossible.

Many businesses are now trying to eliminate outsourcing certain services and trying to do everything in-house. Work changes like these are never as easy as they sound, but they aren’t impossible.

Many new proposals are going out there to rebuild the country since the pandemic, and one of those ways is to shop “in-house.” There are many benefits of hiring outside service providers, call centers, and more. Still, in the past year, it’s been discovered that doing so has led to many security breaches when you outsource to other countries because they offer cheaper services. Try to stick within the U.S. – It’s encouraged for now, but may be enforced shortly. This will help you save money and play an important role in rebuilding the economic structure as well.

 

5.    Increase Your Cybersecurity

One of the major work changes you might see is that your handsome IT guy is now wearing a mask around the office while beaming with pride because their switch cables look amazing.

One of the major work changes you might see is that your handsome IT guy is now wearing a mask around the office while beaming with pride because their switch cables look amazing. You also may have noticed that we aren’t around the office as much as before. That’s because we are managing as much as we can remotely.

As mentioned earlier, these cyberattacks and governed attacks aren’t going to go away on their own. The only way to hinder it is by stepping up all of your business’s security as much as possible. Therefore, it may be important that you check into everything related to cybersecurity and research it thoroughly to teach your employees these methods. We highly suggest that you read the rest of our blog to see all of the trends over the past couple of years and see how things have been increasing – as well as how to stop them.
