Teleworking has ceased to be a temporary option and has become a worker’s right in many companies. Flexibility and work conciliation is a growing demand, and digitalization is essential for this model to work. But… Are all companies ready for this change or are there still some procedures that can only be done in person at your office?
The rise of telework and its challenges
It is true that the pandemic forced the shift to telework, but still in 2025, there are many companies that cannot take on this model because it can affect their productivity and safety. These are some of the main challenges they have to face:
- Access to information: Employees need to access documents and data from any location without compromising the security of the data. This means that they need to have systems in which to host this data without losing confidentiality.
- Effective collaboration: If there is no digital structure, communication and workflow will not work or will not flow properly. Lack of collaborative tools can lead to confusion and delays in project execution.
- Data protection and compliance: With digitization, companies must comply with strict privacy and security regulations. Document management must ensure that documents are protected and comply with current regulations, such as the Create and Grow Law which will be implemented this year.
Are there any procedures that can only be carried out in the office?
If your answer is yes, it is time to ask yourself if your company is taking advantage of the benefits offered by digitalization. With the right technology, many transactions that previously could only be done in person can now be done securely online.
Digitization is the answer
For telework to be efficient and secure, companies must adopt digital tools to optimize information management and improve collaboration. Some of the most important solutions include:
- Document management in the cloud: Storage and access to files from anywhere, without depending on physical servers. This allows employees to work flexibly and without geographical restrictions.
- Workflow automation: Streamline processes to avoid delays in approvals or repetitive tasks. Automation makes it easier to complete tasks quickly and error-free. In addition, custom automations can be created.
- Electronic signature and digital documents: Streamline contracts, agreements and other administrative processes without the need to print or send physical documents. The electronic signature also ensures the legal validity of documents.
- Advanced security: Implement multifactor authentication and data encryption to prevent unauthorized access. Digital security is essential to protect confidential information and ensure that only authorized persons have access to certain documents.
The future of work is here
Companies that do not adapt their processes to a digital environment run the risk of becoming obsolete.
Hybrid work is here to stay and organizations need to be prepared to take advantage of all the benefits it offers. Adopting a robust digital infrastructure is critical to creating a secure, efficient and productive work environment for both remote employees and those still in the office.
