- New Functionality Simplifies and Streamlines Remote Work Requests, Risk Assessment, Ongoing Management, and Workforce Compliance
Topia, the leader in Global Talent Mobility, announced the latest innovative solution coming on top of the Topia One platform to meet the real-time needs of companies looking to implement and manage remote work policies. Planned for formal release in early 2022, and with multiple customers already signed up, Topia’s remote work offering enables organizations to leverage a single automated solution to help explore potential remote work locations, submit remote work requests, assess them for risk and compliance concerns, and manage the remote work process for both HR teams and mobile employees.
“Employees are demanding flexibility when it comes to where and how they work. These shifting preferences are creating real concerns for talent attraction, retention, and overall strategy, ” said Steve Black, Topia’s Chief Strategy Officer. “Leading companies want to offer more flexibility, but the lack of technology to manage this new workforce category has been a huge blocker to leveraging remote work at scale.”
