With the government announcing that loadshedding is set to become a permanent fixture in South African life, many companies are considering bringing employees back to the office full-time. While that may be good news for employers, working from home (WFH) has become something few workers are willing to give up.
According to recent statistics, the trend towards remote work sees no signs of abating. Millennials and Gen Z workers are particularly receptive to remote work, with over 70% of them preferring WFH.
Theresa Relihan, Head of Marketing for Sub Saharan Africa at Logitech says, “Loadshedding can be a significant challenge for workers and companies alike. So many of us rely on technology to stay connected and productive. This is why it is now important to invest in a range of products that ensure that workers can stay connected and productive, even during long power outages.”
Always outlast loadshedding:
Designed using the latest in cutting-edge technology, Logitech’s rechargeable battery technology provides reliable power for up to 10 hours, ensuring that you can keep working even when the electricity stops. The Logitech Brio 500, makes sure that you always look and sound natural in full 1080HD without the need for a battery. If it is plugged into your portable device, it will work for as long as you do.
Following in its, long-lasting footsteps are Logitech’s award-winning wireless headphones which can run for up to 16 hours at a time. This makes them perfectly suited for using when you are in a meeting but need to find a new office space.
Ease of connection is key.
In addition to its innovative battery technology, Logitech offers a range of products designed to enhance the remote work experience. For example, its wireless keyboards and mice allow for a seamless connection, enabling workers to stay connected and productive. The Logitech C920 webcam offers high-definition video quality, providing workers with a professional video conferencing experience, even during power outages.
Relihan concludes, “We are committed to helping South African workers stay connected and productive regardless of what challenges they face. Unfortunately, loadshedding isn’t going anywhere in South Africa so we need innovative technology that can make a real difference for workers, allowing them to continue working and achieving their goals, even during power outages.”
