A remote work arrangement that allows employees to perform their job duties outside the traditional office environment.
HR departments establish telecommuting policies to define work expectations, communication protocols, and cybersecurity measures. Telecommuting enhances work-life balance and expands talent access beyond geographical limitations.
Not exactly — telecommuting means working remotely from a location other than the main workplace (such as home, a co-working space, or a café), while working from home refers specifically to choosing your home as your workplace.
Telecommuting is the practice of performing your work remotely, using technology and communication tools to stay connected with your team and carry out your responsibilities — without needing to be physically present in the office.
