According to the Hellenic Federation of Enterprises, more than 55% of tasks can be performed remotely, more than 7 out of 10 companies already implement a hybrid telecommuting model, and more than 60% consider that telecommuting has definitely had a positive/somewhat positive effect on productivity.
The research findings, as well as several other teleworking topics, will be the subject of the project's launch conference scheduled for December 1, and there will be a new public announcement for participation. It is noted that upon completion of the project, the practical guide to teleworking will be made available publicly and free of charge to all interested parties.
The challenges
The SEVSOCDIAL project focuses on three major social dialogue challenges refering,
a) in the adaptation of the national social dialogue (procedures, priority of issues, methodology) to the new data created by remote working,
b) providing support to businesses, especially small and medium-sized businesses, for the successful transition to a new, hybrid model of work organization and
c) adapting the existing institutional framework to the special requirements arising from remote working.
