Virtual Employees and the Benefits of Hiring One
Similar to freelancers, virtual employees operate on a remote working basis. This can be at home, in a personal office or collaborative public space. The desire to be a virtual employee is growing, especially over the last few years where working from home has become the norm.
Virtual employees are hired through a third-party company, rather than directly. The notion is ideal for new and small businesses, as by hiring a virtual employee through a third party, the recruitment process can be avoided altogether. They do not cost as much as hiring traditional employees, and the third-party agency manages the hiring process.

Are Virtual Businesses More Sustainable?
Virtual businesses operate without a base, 100 per cent through the Internet and a good setup. Success lies in communication, and with the likes of virtual meetings, instant messaging, emails, file sharing and project management systems, it’s a more than viable way to run a business.
A virtual business offers business owners the opportunity to have a wider talent pool, with employees working from anywhere in the world. It cuts down the costs on office spaces and utility bills and enhances the wellbeing and productivity of staff who can work flexibly. These all contribute to the idea that virtual businesses are more sustainable.
