Document Description:

A Telecommuting Agreement is used to establish the terms and conditions governing a relationship which allows an employee to work from home or another satellite work station as an alternative to commuting to and from the workplace. Given today's new communication technologies, this type of arrangement is an increasingly popular means to reduce overhead costs and provide flexibility to employees.

Telecommuting is often used by employers to attract and retain employees and as such, it is necessary to outline the terms of such an agreement in writing. This is a comprehensive template, critical for anyone considering a telecommuting arrangement, as it contains provisions relating to employee evaluation, inspection, pay status, and equipment ownership and liability.
