| Research tends to indicate that employees allowed to telecommute one day per week were 9% more satisfied with their employers that those made to come to the office everyday. This also directly reflected in the employees perceptions and reactions to their boss as telecommuters found their boss did a better job of people management and that senior managers valued them more. Tim Ferriss in his book “The 4 Hour Workweek”advocates that employees looking to follow his mantra look to get agreement on telecommuting as soon as possible and once increases in productivity are demonstrated to ask for an increase in the number of telecommuting days. |
