Listen to today's podcast...
It’s not a bird. Nor a plane…It’s the Telecommuter!
A survey of employees who telecommute three days a week experienced a
- 46% decrease in stress,
- 45% increase in job satisfaction, and
- 30% increase in job productivity.
In addition, telecommuting provides an opportunity to create a more harmonious balance between home and work commitments. Three-quarters of employees polled said the ability to work from home was their most desired family-friendly job perk.

Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Telecommuter Appreciation Week:
For some, telecommuting may be a viable option that allows for an increase in productivity and more sense of control over when tasks get accomplished.
If you think that this is for you, sit down with your work team and discuss how this may be implemented. If telecommuting isn’t the answer, at least you have opened the door to looking for other alternatives to maintaining work and life balance.
Though I am not a true telecommuter, I am an entrepreneur with a home-based office. I appreciate the flexible work arrangements that I have. Some days, I work all day and into the evening. On other days, I may find myself helping out a family member or pulling the weeds from my gardens. This flexibility gives me the balance that I want and need.
