teleworking

teleworking
Gen Mgt
a geographically dispersed work environment where workers can work at home on a computer and transmit data and documents to a central office via telephone lines. As people become accustomed to working via e-mail and the Internet, teleworking is proving ever more popular.
     The advantages of teleworking are considerable, offering as it does an excellent compromise between the security of fulltime employment and the liberty and privacy of self-employment. However, it also has disadvantages—the most important of which is the danger of being left behind, forgotten, or overlooked when new assignments or promotions come up within the organization. It is therefore supremely important for teleworkers to build a plan for staying visible and connected with the people they work with, even if they spend much of their working life in their home office.
