If we zoom into past a lot of things have changed since then. Initially, the populace did not have a much broader aspect they believed walking for hours or traveling to the workplace is the only way to earn their bread, but today they are aware of technology and how to use it for their own gain. People are constantly looking for new and convenient ways to earn their income by being in their comfort zone. Yes, a lot of people in the current era are opting for work from home especially our female audience.
The technology today has made life very simple and dreams are not dreams anymore. In the past women were not allowed to step out of their house to showcase their skills to the world, but today they all have access to their dreams with a laptop or a cell phone. The technology has given them the freedom to be their own boss and no need to cover lengthy commute. Women today have the absolute freedom to pursue their job. Work from home comes under two categories: You can join an online internship/job to earn your income or you can start your own brand or business to earn your income.
Flipping through the pages of past years, the story it narrates is of sacrifice. Many girls had to leave their job as their in-laws were not open to the idea of their daughter in law working out till late hours. This snatched away their right to work and to contribute to the growth of a company. And in the end they became financially dependent upon their partner. But today many old school workplaces are becoming flexible and employees are provided with an option of work from home to serve their company. Now many girls are pursuing their work even after getting married and managing both home and work with ease. Kudos!
For students who are looking for some part-time jobs find it really convenient to join an online internship according to their skills like teaching, writing, digital marketing, and so on.

In some cases, it is the duty of the boss to look after his staff. If a staff member has an ailing family member at home he/she won’t be able to concentrate on work, instead of the asset they can become a liability or if they had an accident that demands long term bed rest in such scenario they should be befitted for work from home. Employees too should be regular about their work in such cases. Many employees are satisfied with their work routine as their company provides them relaxation in tough times to work from home. It has been recorded that may employees have shown great results and positive growth.
