Make Teleworking Work for Your Organization
As traffic congestion frustrates commuters and companies search for new ways to keep their employees satisfied, your organization may have wondered: Should we consider telework? Digital technology makes it possible to locate an office most anywhere, while telework advocates tout the gains in productivity from making the switch.

To help you decide whether your organization should join the telework trend, the e-Work Guide walks you through important decision points. The e-Work Guide:

• Defines the objectives of a telework program.
• Evaluates the costs and benefits of different types of telework programs.
• Highlights relevant costs and benefits that must be evaluated within the context of your organization's objectives.

A blue ribbon panel of telework experts has compiled the best practices for telework excellence. These recommended practices come from the experience and insights of experts in human relations, facilities, technology, legal affairs, program management and finance. Their expertise is reinforced by the findings of a survey of employers with telework programs.

The e-Work Guide is a project of the International Telework Association and Council with support from the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA). ITAC commissioned the blue ribbon panel that wrote the book, and wholeheartedly endorses the book's mission. Contributing expertise in survey and analysis are the American Management Association (AMA), the world's leading membership-based management development organization, and the U.S. General Services Administration.
