Remote-working expenses: from business travel to home-office equipment – how tech can make life easier
With business travel expected to pick up and home working set to continue, companies need clear policies on expenses. That’s where expense processing apps can help manage employee expectations
As the pandemic recedes and staff trickle back to their offices, they will find a very different world of work. Employees will have to make a whole new set of decisions – when and where they work, how much time they spend in the office and at home, whether to work with non-vaccinated co-workers and customers – and for some, whether to start business travel again.
Staff are likely to feel uneasy and unsure unless their employers can give them clarity about where they stand on these issues. Any confusion risks eroding employee satisfaction and could lead to decision fatigue, frustration and ambiguity over their role. If employees get fed up, their productivity will suffer and they may even look around for another job.
Our studies have shown that 65% of employees don’t even know their company’s expense policy
Four in five think their professional and personal lives will suffer unless they increase their business travel this year
