This week’s train strikes have once again highlighted how easily travel disruption can impact businesses. With many employees unable to commute to the office, working from home has become the only practical option for thousands of professionals.
But working remotely isn’t just about having a laptop on the kitchen table. To maintain productivity and communication, businesses need a reliable, secure, and scalable home-working setup.
Why remote work setups matter during disruption
When travel networks grind to a halt, companies that are prepared with robust home-working solutions can carry on with minimal disruption. Without them, businesses risk:
- Missed meetings and deadlines
- Frustrated employees who are unable to access systems
- Gaps in customer service and communication
- Security risks from employees improvising with personal tools
In other words, the strength of your remote-working setup directly affects your business continuity.

What makes a reliable home-working setup?
A strong remote setup ensures that employees can work just as effectively from home as they can in the office. That means:
- Unified Communications – seamless phone, video, and messaging integrated into platforms like Microsoft Teams
- Secure Cloud Access – reliable access to files, applications, and data from any location
- Business-Grade Connectivity – resilient internet and mobile solutions to keep teams online
- Cyber Security – protection against threats when employees are connecting from outside the office network
With the right infrastructure in place, disruption such as train strikes becomes an inconvenience, not a crisis.
