Telework Revs Up as More Employers Offer Work Flexibility
March 8th, 2009 Posted in General
According to a recent study completed by WorldatWork, in the five-year period since 2003, the total number of once-a-month telecommuters in the U.S. has risen 43 percent — from 23.5 million to 33.7 million Americans. “Our study shows that occasional telework has risen dramatically,” said Rose Stanley, work-life practice leader at WorldatWork. “Employers seem more willing to try new ways of working. We receive calls on a daily basis from employers wanting to learn how to pilot a telework program, the do’s and don’ts of managing virtual workers, and how to use telework to reward and motivate talent.”
