Tube Strikes Affecting British Business...?

With the tube strikes looming tomorrow morning and set to cause major travel disruption for London workers, Jes Breslaw, Director of Cloud Solutions at Accellion has made the following comments:

“With the BYOD phenomena some companies are at least a little protected from business workflow coming to a standing stop when transport does. It's one think to be able to send an email, skype IM or SMS, but with mobile file-sharing solutions employees can securely access their files and folders wherever they may be stranded.

Failing to provide employees with the right applications across a range of devices increases employees’ inability to access to the tools and services they need on days when they cannot get to work. Organisations need to provide employees with enterprise mobile platforms designed to let them work remotely. So whilst employers can't prevent or avoid major travel disruptions, they can at least stay connected and keep the ball rolling.”

So those of you that thought you would get the day off...get back to work!
