European Digital Skills Hub for Remote Workers
Why RemoteNET?
The compulsory transition to remote work caused by the Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted both the need for digital skills in individuals and the concepts of digital readiness for institutions.
Digital skills
Individuals who cannot adapt to remote working methods and do not have basic digital skills have started to stay out of the labour market.
Psycho-social problems
Individuals working remotely may experience socio-psychological problems related to work-life balance, time and stress management.
Musculoskeletal disorders
Wrong posture and working positions are responsible for significant disorders in the musculoskeletal system.
Target Groups
Men and women who are currently working remotely in the labour market:
they will be supported to have the necessary equipment while performing their professions at home
Individuals who have been out of employment with the transition to remote work:
their skills will facilitate their (re)entry into the labour market. In this sense, they will have open access and free resources
