Taske2： many empolyees work at home uesing mordern technology.this is more
benefit to workers， not to employers!what extend do you argree or disgree?
Progressions in telecommunications technology have enabled the practice of
telecommuting，which means workers can conduct their assigned tasks without
having to commute back and forth to work regularly.This emerging working pattern
has profound implications on our work and life.Some assert that only workers，not
the employers，can be beneficiaries of telecommuting.Personally，I cannot go along
with their view.
Granted，telecommuting can bestow numerous benefits upon the employees123
begin with，employees do not have to live with the constant fear that their boss
may look over their shoulders，as their work is supervised from far away and in
more laissez faire fashions.There is no need for them to get super well-groomed
and they can “slack off” a bit when the work-induced stress is too intense to
bear.They can even do aerobics or take showers to refresh themselves provided
they can meet the deadline set by their bosses.Furthermore，telecommuting can
spare workers the everyday chore of traveling back and forth to work.And this，in
turn，helps them to cut down on costs of bus fare，fuel or extravagant work
clothes.Lastly，telecommuters can dedicate far more time to their spouse and
offspring than office-bound workers.This can，doubtless，strengthen their family
ties or may even salvage dysfunctional households.
Yet it would be erroneous if we fail to ackowledge the advantages
telecommuting can confer on the employers.In the first place，less
constraints，less peer pressure at work，no office politics and more flexible
schedules can boost employee morale and enhance productivity.Empirical evidence
abounds in this respect that more occupational freedom can，more often than
not，lead to stronger vocational motivation and more innovative
ideas.Hence，employers may well be better off not keeping tabs on their workers
nine to five every weekday.In the second place telecommuting work force can help
business-owners substantially curtail the overhead costs，such as the costs of
rent and utilities.Thirdly，the fact that workers can telecommute via the
worldwide communications network allows employers to recruit people from remote
locations or even half way around the globe，thereby markedly augmenting the
labor pool of businesses.Last but not least，employers will not be plagued by
petty concerns such as absenteeism and excessive sick leaves anymore if workers
telecommute.
To conclude，I concede that telecommuting can bring about a variety of boons
to employees.However，it would be unjustifiable if we overlooked the advantages
telecommuting can spawn on the employers' side.And we should strive to seek out
the most effective approach to exploit this win-win situation. (Patrick)
