With recent headlines, has your company considered what might happen if your employees needed to work from home suddenly?  Does your company have policies and procedures in place for working remotely?  SpireTech can help you get ready.

Things to consider might include:

• A revision to your employee manual adding work-from-home policies, including computer security, timekeeping, communication, and home office standards
• Setting up VPN, OneDrive for business, or SharePoint access to company data
• Configuring BYOD (Bring-your-own-device) and MDM (Mobile device management) policies using Microsoft 365 to secure company data
• Technical documentation and instructions for employees to setup work-from-home access
• Installing company software on home computers when appropriately licensed, such as Office 365, which allows up to five devices per user
• Implementing multi-factor authentication and secure password policies
• Setting up office chat using Microsoft Teams or Slack
• How employees will access business phone lines, forward calls, and check voicemail from outside the office
