A Wireless-Wireline Physically Converged Architecture: Introducing Cellular Subscriber Lines
As customer demand for high-bandwidth services increases, providers look for ways to maximize existing infrastructure and manage costs. ASSIA is proud to be at the forefront of an innovative approach to solve this challenge: CSL (Cellular Subscriber Lines).
In our new Thoughts on Work video series, Tuncay Cil, ASSIA Chief Strategy Officer, covers the various challenges and expectations we have and are facing with the new work from home trend.
What’s the biggest obstacle to work from home?
With 55 million Americans projected to continue working from home, we are seeing a permanent shift towards a distributed and modern workforce with a greater reliance on a strong and stable internet connection.
Once we stop thinking of location as a qualifier for employment, it makes it a lot easier to hire quality talent from a significantly larger pool. It even saves money. But it all starts with a shift to remote work.
One 2019 study shows that remote employees work an average of 1.4 days more than their office counterparts. Another shows a dramatic reduction in absenteeism.
In March 2020, twenty million jobs were lost or furloughed, mainly due to an inability to transition into telework. Simultaneously, companies rapidly moved 60-80% of the remaining personnel to work from home.
