Telework, telecommuting and
governments & public policy

Telework benefits governments at all levels

Many governments, at federal, city and state/province levels, are beginning to understand that there are many other benefits. Aside from the obvious transportation and environmental benefits, telework can:

  • reduce wear and tear on roadways,

  • increase job opportunities for disabled & mobility restricted,

  • allow work to continue during emergencies (eg strikes, snow, ice, medical problems such as SARS etc)

  • help reduce daytime break-ins and other crimes

  • help reduce the demand for parking, but there is no government leadership to make it happen
