Bank Holidays: juggling business and family time

Citrix Online helps working parents plan for April’s shower of holidays

With five public holidays coming up during April and May, you may want to make the most of the long-weekends to spend extra time with the children and young people in your care. If you own a small or medium business, affordable web conferencing and remote access tools from Citrix Online make it possible for you to work away from the office, with no loss of productivity.

“School holidays can put pressure on working parents who want to spend time with their family or need to organise extra child care,” says Andrew Millard, director of marketing and e-Commerce EMEA, Citrix Online. “To help them overcome this issue, online collaboration solutions are readily available and will enable employers and employees to improve their work/life balance during the coming weeks.”

Spending time as a family with the young people in your care doesn't mean having to put your business on hold. Citrix Online’s web conferencing and remote access technologies are simple to use and within financial reach of even the smallest companies. They enable workers to easily attend online meetings, webinars and training events, regardless of where they take place. They can also access their desktops, including programs, files and emails so they can work from home or elsewhere as if they were in the office.

“By providing the tools to allow employees to work from anywhere and with anyone in this way, businesses can help working parents, whether the boss or the employee, achieve a better work/life balance that will increase job satisfaction, without damaging productivity in any way,” Andrew says.
