Be Among the First to Begin Improving the Environment - One Teleworker at a Time

The hassle of the daily commute can really affect your employees' performance and your community's quality of life. But you have the power to improve both through Telecommuting. By implementing a telework program in your company, you can help your employees, your community, and your bottom line.

Employers participating in a Telework Round Table Discussion who were asked what additional support would be beneficial when starting a telework program, identified the following:

• Information sharing by companies with successful programs on costs and benefits – compelling economic case studies
• Management training on how to measure telework productivity – profile telework candidates
• Meetings with directors/management to discuss ecommute telework tools available
• List of available resources, technical support
• Assistance with development of program policies –  sharing of materials used by seasoned veterans of telework programs so companies do not have to begin from scratch
