Abstract:
The information and technology wave of the 1990s has
brought with it a new way of working: virtual officing. A
May 1991 survey from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
counted 21.8 million nonagricultural home workers,
including 20 million who worked at home for their
primary job.
When considering a virtual arrangement, you need to
decide if you and your work are right for virtual officing.
Once you decide to work virtually, you need to know how
to present your idea to your employer or customer and
how to arrange your work environment and schedule for
optimum performance.
