Remote Work Strategy

Athens County understands that employment opportunities granting people the option to perform work duties either from a home office or co-working space are on the rise. Whether for health and safety reasons, as business strategy, or an incentive to promote flexibility, more companies are making this option available.

Co-working Spaces:

Athensworks is our current available co-working space in Athens County, geared toward current remote workers that want to have a dedicated working space outside of their home. Visit their website for more information: Athensworks – Athensworks

Remote Working Strategy:

In 2021, the Athens County Remote Work Strategy Committee worked with the Voinovich School of Leadership and Public Service and the Athens County Broadband Advisory Committee to devise a remote work strategy for Athens County. This partnership resulted in the publishing of a remote work strategy white paper by the Voinovich School. Click the below link to read the white paper.
