The wired webbed world of the Teleworking employee

Working from home is no longer a fad, but a fact of life. The reasons are clear: employees who Telework enjoy the comfort of being at home and the peace of mind that comes with avoiding traffic and parking problems. They can also work without distractions one or more days each week.

Email and the Internet make this Commute Solution even more efficient today. Employers who offer Teleworking as an option can save money on office space, parking and overhead, while gaining the ability to hire employees who live out of commuting range. Teleworking is the way much of the world works now.
