Costa Rica has become an ideal destination for foreigners who choose to work remotely, highlighting digital nomads from Chile, Portugal, and the United States who have lived and worked from here, some for periods of months and in other cases for a year.

According to a study conducted by MBO Partners, some 17 million people in the U.S. aspire to be digital nomads. Here’s what employers should consider when employees are on the go to ensure that productivity isn’t interrupted. 

A US survey conducted last summer by MBO Partners estimated digital nomads in the country increased by 49 per cent year on year to almost 11 million people, accounting for about 7 per cent of the US labour force.

Members of the House of Representatives introduced new legislation to help implement a “consistent definition” of “employee” across the country.
