I was asked by a friend for input on a work at home agreement, and thought it might be helpful to our readers (those who work at home and those who manage people who do.)
A good work at home agreement could be a simple checklist or a more formal document, depending on the needs of your organization, but it should include most of the following, depending on the circumstances:
- What days/hours of the teleworker’s regular schedule can be worked at home?
- Are they discretionary or mandatory? (If you’re sharing office space it would be awkward if both showed up to work in the office at the same time.)
- What tasks can be done remotely, and which need to be done in the office?
- Under what circumstances should the teleworker be called into the office?
- What hours does the teleworker need to be available by phone and/or email?
- What meetings should the teleworker attend in person?
- Will the company supply any equipment (laptop, phone, etc.)
- Will the company reimburse for expenses such as phone calls, internet bills, faxes, postage, etc.?
- Are status meetings or check-in points required? (This might be a good idea, especially for new teleworkers or new managers of teleworkers to ensure that objectives are being set and met.)
- Is it okay if the teleworker works irregular hours? (Do you care if he’s golfing all day and working all night, for example.)
The more of these things are worked out in advance, the less potential for issues later.
Best wishes,
-Paula

there are lots of Work At Home programs out there. some programs are scam. I only stick to making blogs and monetizing it with Google Adsense.
it is good to know that there are lots of “Work At Home” opportunities that are available on the internet. I mainly use Adsense and Clickbank to earn money online. and work at home because they are reliable and pays consistently.
i enjoy Working at Home by being in affiliate programs and earning money online. by working at home, i could have more time with my kids.
owning a couple of blogs and websites and monetizing them with adsense or adbrite is a good way to Work at home. you can also answer paid surveys but most of them are scam sites.
With increased congestion on the roads and the high costs of fuel, commuting to and from work is becoming unaffordable for many. This is useful information for many employers who are considering allowing their staff to work from home. Providing that you have individuals who work for you that can be empowered and motivated enough to manage their time efficiently, there is no reason this cannot work.
With the high cost of fuel and therefore commuting in general, I think working from home has to be seriously considered by many businesses. Here is the UK, fuel costs and congestion are so bad that many people are quitting work because quite simply the sums don’t add up!
I kind a enjoyed this write ups, i believe its good stuff to our members. so many things to learn and i hope you regularly write good stuff on this website. thanks for sharing
I was thinking I’d drop a message here to train you the most effective way to produce money using dating affiliate websites along with absolutely free strategies. We were able to earn 3 to 5 thousand bucks a month using the methods inside this freely available guide, http://bit.ly/5kmonthguide – click to read.
Me and my girlfriend are into this Work At Home programs by selling affiliate products online, we also maintain an online store .
I use both Adsense and Adbrite and i can say that adbrite is also a good source of income but not as good as adsense.:”‘
Stargate is probably the best science fiction series after Firefly. Nice visual effects too.“-
Almost everyone that earnsmoney on the internet (even the millionaires) do so through affiliate marketing. Being successful in affiliate marketing involves applying the formula that makes other affiliate marketers successful. For example, autoblogging. Autoblogging has been one of the least well-known forms of making money for quite some time… mainly because it’s quite difficult to make a good auto-blog. Yet, when done right, it can provide you with a lifetime of passive income with the only real work required being the setting up process. Video Marketing, and several other marketing strategies are all designed to drive traffic to your site, can be incorporated steadily in order to raise the position your site appears in the SERPs when any one searches for a term related to your site. And yet, even this can be totally automated.
