Moving the location of work from office to home benefits not only the individual employee but also the employers: better work-life balance, reduced costs and commuting time, and increased productivity all around. ICT and Next Gen NBN are enablers that can transform the way we work through such home-based work. This workshop aims to share the possibilities of such ICT-enabled home-based work for companies and their employees, and the ICT tools that make this possible. Through this workshop, you can also network with service and technology providers and understand how their service offerings can benefit your businesses.
Who should attend
· Business users, human resource and talent development personnel, IT personnel
· Enterprises and organisations interested in implementing home-based work
