Telecommuting can be defined as a working arrangement adopted by a full-time, part-time or self-employed worker who works from a location away from the office (or in some cases from the headquarters ), at any time, for any period of time, using different tools and technologies for this purpose. There is no universal definition, but fundamentally it is about being independent of place and time. Gone are the days when it was simply defined as “working from home,” even though home is where most telecommuting takes place. There are many terms that can be used to describe the concept, such as telecommuting, hoteling, e-working, telecommuting, and mobile working, among others. Some examples of teleworking • ADSL Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL, Dial-up . .. ) • Microsoft SharePoint. • Social Networking Social Networking (facebook, QQ, weibo, ZingMe ..) • Video conference A video conference (Wechat, Skype, Bing Chat ...)• Voice over IP Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP, Viber, Heyfire, Zalo ...)• Wi-Fi, 3G, 4G ...Today many companies are interested in teleworking for the many advantages that the initiative entails. These benefits affect the company, employees and broader social and environmental spheres, as we will see in this section. The first advantage is human resources. With teleworking, workers will be more productive and motivated and resources will be used optimally. Then, the company's service will improve. Overtime costs and turnover will also be reduced. People are likely to stay longer with an employer who offers flexible working arrangements. This would result in brand loyalty because long-serving staff will be able to develop long-term relationships with customers. This would also increase the reputation of the company. during tough economic times, when companies want all their staff employed and working hard. Indeed, remote workers may feel that they should enter these periods, in the name of self-preservation. This could defeat one of the aims of the initiative which is to have a leaner and more agile workforce. In my opinion, I think I can be a teleworker. I can use my knowledge to help other partners solve their problems via telecommuting. As seen, the barriers and challenges to remote working are not so much technological but more about feelings, culture and trust. All of the above issues could lead to companies not adopting teleworking and adapting the way they work. In the long run, they may miss out on the delightful benefits of telecommuting .
