Kuwait ranked second in the Arab world and 49th globally in the Circle Loop index, which specializes in measuring remote work, during 2021, ahead of developed countries such as the United States, which ranked 52nd globally, and China, which ranked 53rd.<\/p>\n
According to the index, Kuwait scored 50 points out of the total components of the index, which included the average internet speed and cost, which came at $84.8, in addition to the monthly rent for one room, which amounted to $890, reports a local Arabic daily.<\/p>\n
The index relies on ranking countries on a set of methodologies, including average fixed broadband internet speed, countries that allow working holiday visas, acceptance of immigrants, and average cost of rent for a one-bedroom apartment.<\/p>\n
A governmental study issued by the National Center for Development Research indicated that the application of the distance work model is a new trend that began to grow more rapidly after the Corona crisis, and we have seen how this method has achieved benefits for everyone alike, as individuals and as non-states. It still contains some negatives that need to be developed.<\/p>\n
The study indicated that this development in the business model, its reliance on the mechanism of remote work, and the accompanying development in knowledge and innovation, and its reliance mainly on digitization, facilitated the task of many current business owners in earning money via the Internet.<\/p>\n
The sources pointed out that most companies concluded that the majority of their employees do not work less when working remotely, but rather the opposite is true, as most of those surveyed confirmed that working from home did not harm their productivity, but more than four out of ten believed that they gained more efficiency in their professional activity.<\/p>\n
According to the study, the impact of remote work on overall productivity remains variable, as it became clear that the \u201cincrease in productivity is very clear\u201d in some professions, and that jobs related to information and communication technology are the biggest gainers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
