The remote work visa, our shelter from the COVID-19 storm?

Wednesday, August 04, 2021 Since March 2020, when COVID-19 hit our shores we have been forced to adjust, readjust and acclimatise to our constantly changing “new” normal. In the commercial context, one of the most dramatic “new normals” is the increased practice of work from home . Interestingly enough, working from home is now becoming a staple in workplaces all over the world, allowing for greater flexibility and, in some cases, productivity. In Jamaica, the Disaster Risk Management Act indicates that arrangements that provide for work from home should be permitted in public bodies and in the private sector encouraged, and in specified cases at the employee s request may be required.
