Telecommuting

Telecommuting Power Point
Download the Powerpoint above and review it. I really think that you will agree that telecommuting has great benefits.

1. Eliminate the time, trouble, and expense of physically commuting to work. This gives the average person an extra hour per day, right off the top, you can also translate this to mean your personal time, more time with the family, less stress, and general health improvements.


2. Having just half its work force telecommute as little as one day a week will cut costs down by 10%. Telecommuting enables employers to reduce their office space and real estate costs, as well as lower their administrative expenses such as the need for desktop computers, office furniture and land lines.

3. Also allows the organization to reach long distances to find qualified people to work

4. Environmental benefits include cutting down on air pollution, use of non-renewable energy sources, traffic congestion, and savings in energy and petroleum consumption.

5. Workers commute an average of 10,000 miles per year and consume 67 billion gallons of gas. Telecommuting reduces vehicle miles traveled per year by more than 35 billion and saves almost 2 billion gallons of gas.

I think that the findings by a survey of 2,000 telecommuters at Cisco Inc. Says it all.
----69% higher productivity from working out home
-----83% said their ability to communicate With coworkers is the same if not better when working remotely
-----80% noted an improved quality of life when given option of working at home
-----91% said it’s important to overall satisfaction which can lower turnover rate
