Setting Up Remote Employees for Success

Setting Up Remote Employees for Success

Employers and businesses are facing new challenges with the sudden need for remote work capabilities. Communication, productivity and efficiency are all impacted, and employees working from home need specialized equipment that can both accommodate their home workspaces and replicate what they can access in their work offices.

Despite remote work increasing by 173% between 2005 and 2020,1 only 7% of American workers had access to a “flexible workplace” and only 29% of jobs could be done remotely before the COVID-19 pandemic.2

In February 2020, Cisco saw 22 times the amount of network traffic per second than normal,3 indicating the immediate shift to remote work. The ‘new normal’ has created a new need.

As employers establish and support a remote workforce, they can trust LG to provide high-performance business laptops, secure cloud endpoints, innovative display technology and video conferencing solutions to enable highly productive remote work and enhance remote and in-office collaboration.

 

See More & Do More with Widescreen Desktop Monitors

LG UltraWide™ monitors provide immersive viewing with an expanded 21:9 aspect ratio. A single UltraWide monitor with an ergonomic stand can eliminate the need for multiple monitors on the desk and the associated energy consumption, reduce hardware-related issues and provide a clean home workspace where the user can multitask with several programs or view multiple images and documents on one screen at the same time. LG’s IPS (In-Plane Switching) technology delivers crisp graphics and vivid color at virtually any angle.
