In case you hadn’t heard – maybe you had the radio cranked too high during your daily commute – last week was “Telework Week,” sponsored by the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation.
It’s an effort to spread the word throughout the commonwealth about how businesses can benefit by letting eligible employees work from home at least one day a week.
A lot of Virginia workers are doing it: More than 729,000 work from home one day or more a week, according to the department.
