remote workers
Distant office staff
Remote workers are employees who perform their jobs from locations outside a traditional office, typically from home.
The term gained widespread use during the COVID-19 pandemic when many companies shifted to distributed workforces.
Remote workers may be fully remote or hybrid, splitting time between home and office: Our team includes both in-office staff and remote workers.
