Telework Proposal1

This proposal recommends including telework education on the Texas Workforce Commission website to encourage more employers to offer telework. Telework provides benefits to employers like increased productivity and employee retention. It also benefits the environment through reductions in emissions and road usage. Employees benefit from telework through greater work-life balance and savings from reduced commuting. The proposal outlines an implementation plan for employers that starts with a pilot program before fully adopting telework. Resources on successful telework programs are also provided.
