In today's world, employees are no longer content to stay locked into the traditional 9 to 5 jobs of the past. With the improvements in technology, employees now look for increased job flexibilities, which permit employees to better manage their work-life and their home life. If the federal government wants to become an employer of choice for this nation's talent then they are going to have to change the way business has traditionally been conducted in the past. In order to continue to attract and retain quality employees, programs like Telework are becoming a valuable management tool that can be effectively implemented to address quality of life issues for employees while enhancing an organizations ability to produce more work with fewer resources.

By implementing programs such as Telework managers emphasize that they trust and value the individual worker, in return for this flexibility workers are more loyal, harder working and conscientious than ever before. Work place flexibilities are truly a win-win scenario for the organization as well as the individual.
