HR Compliance 2012 - Telecommuting: Effective Policies, Practices, and Programs

This webinar will cover how to develop and implement a formal program on telecommuting for companies who are considering it and how to review and formalize current practices for companies who already have a program.

More and more companies are allowing employees to perform their work from a remote worksite ranging from an occasional occurrence to a regular full-time schedule.

This webinar contains an overview of how to develop a policy, who or what positions would be eligible, alternative work arrangements, the approval process, rules of operation, compensation and eligible expenses, equipment considerations and support, and effective communication practices. We will cover the business case for telecommuting as well as the advantages and disadvantages. This session will also cover how to develop a proposal to adopt either a full telecommuting plan or hybrid and how to measure, justify and communicate results.
