Hot Desks: Stay Connected While on Vacation

A recent Pew Research Center report shows that 54% of employees whose work can be done from home all or most of the time would prefer to continue working from home after the coronavirus pandemic moves into its endemic phase. 

And as employers have pivoted to accommodate remote working over the last two years, work from home can sometimes mean work from anywhere. So why not head to the beach, where the weather is hot and so are the desks?

What is a Hot Desk?

What is a hot desk exactly? Hot desking provides remote employees a desk in a professional environment. Desks are not assigned to individuals, but they’re open for daily use on a first-come, first serve basis. 

Hot desking provides the perfect hybrid office solution. It’s ideal for individuals who don’t need a full-time office but do need access to a quiet and professional space to achieve their goals for the day.

Who can benefit from a Hot Desk?

Anyone!  As a result of the pandemic pivot more employers are offering employees flexible scheduling and remote work options.  Coworking spaces are accommodating these solutions for the individual and also the enterprise level client. 

If your company offers you these perks, it can partner with a network of coworking facilities that offer a number of solutions for remote employees. Even if your company isn’t a partner, you can likely find a participating coworking space in your vacation destination.
