Teleworking can be a win-win for both employers and employees. Employees love the flexibility and reduced stress, while employers reap the benefits of increased productivity and employee satisfaction. Telework also can increase the flexibility of your office space, reduce your parking needs, and allow you to extend your customer service telephone hours.

Now is the time to get telework started at your company, with a Telework Seattle grant.*

Companies that qualify for Telework Seattle grants receive support from a nationally recognized telework consulting firm offering help formalizing your telework program, defining technology requirements, determining which jobs and employees are good telework candidates, and developing telework policy that works for you. Mini-grants are even available to purchase basic equipment or software. The brief application takes just minutes to complete.
