New ITAC and AMA guide for teleworking updates practices and recommendations A comprehensive guide to teleworking called the “e-WORK GUIDE Recommended Practices from the Experts.” is the result of the work of a blue ribbon panel of telework practitioners and represents current recommended practices for telework. The guide draws on the experience of experts in the fields of human relations, facilities, technology, legal affairs, program management and finance. Special joint International Telework Association & Council (ITAC) and American Management Association survey results on telework have been incorporated to reinforce the substance of the guide. The survey results indicate that 93 percent of the company telework programs have proven successful in achieving business/bottom line results. In addition, 89 percent have successfully improved worker productivity.
