The benefits of a work-at-home program.
Working from home offers the employee and the organization many benefits. The organization can use telework to recruit and retain valuable employees. The organization can also save money on work space and boost morale and loyalty. Employees enjoy the flexibility and convenience that telework offers. Teleworking is popular in the general business world and can be adapted to some jobs in the health care field. Managers must look throughout their organization to see what jobs can be accomplished either partially or completely at home.
