Applications: Putting Work-From-Home to Work

Generally speaking, the most appropriate teleworking applications include jobs where information is gathered, created, and manipulated.

But today, the functions of almost any department - from customer service to inventory management - can be performed from home. Examples include floating call centers, technical help desks, and home-based transaction processing.

A few other examples:

Education: Distance learning, research and collaboration, curriculum development.

Finance: Data query and inquiry research/programming, calling and loan officer automation, mortgage origination.

Government: Procurement, agency representative and case worker automation.

Healthcare: Records transcription, remote consultations, research and collaboration.
