Abstract

Our team collaborated with Smart Columbus to evaluate the potential of telecommuting to be permanently integrated into the workplace. Telecommuting is defined as an arrangement between employee and employer wherein the employee works outside of the traditional work environment, such as in working from home. This paper reviews the existing telecommuting literature and research regarding the benefits it offers to employers, employees, and the environment. Our recommendations will highlight some of the "best practices" for the creation of long-term teleworking programs that benefit both employers and employees.
