A nearly two-year study of China's largest travel agency “showed an astounding productivity boost among the telecommuters equivalent to a full day's work. Turns out work-from-home employees work a true full-shift (or more) versus being late to the office or leaving early multiple times a week and found it less distracting and easier to concentrate at home.”
If that’s not enough to convince worried managers, employee attrition decreased by 50 percent, telecommuters took shorter breaks, had fewer sick days, and took less time off. In addition the data shows that the travel company saved almost $2,000 per employee on rent by reducing the amount of HQ office space. Factor in reduced carbon admissions and it would seem a no-brainer.
