DESCRIPTION:

National Telecommuter Appreciation Week was created in 1993 by the American Telecommuting Association to bring awareness to the positive aspects of having employees work from home one or more days a week. Though no longer sponsored, the week falls during the week of Alexander Graham Bell’s birthday, March 3.

With the advent of the Internet, telecommuting has become popular by allowing real-time interaction with employees and managers from remote locations worldwide. National labor statistics show the trend toward temporary and remote workforces will continue to grow, with more and more people choosing to work from home. The pandemic of 2020-2022 made this essential.

This week highlights the benefits of telecommuting from three viewpoints: The individual, the employer, and society.

The key benefits to each group are as follows:

The individual and family benefit from saved time, lower commuting expenses, reduced stress, more scheduling flexibility, greater satisfaction regarding work, and the pleasure of spending more time together.

The employer benefits from greater productivity, loyalty, and job satisfaction, a stronger focus on job performance, better recruiting and longer retention of the most productive employees, and reduced overhead and facility expenses.

Society benefits from reduced traffic congestion minimized air pollution, lower requirements for (and strain on) transportation infrastructure, and decreased demand scarce and non-renewable resources like fossil fuels.
