Working From Home - The New Way?

Will the government think again about offering tax incentives to those corporations who provide workers with a work from home option? The number of companies offering this option to workers is on the increase. Many workers are opting to cut out the rigors of the daily commuting into the office environment and instead work from home. This will create a reduction in the demand for gasoline, which in turn will reduce expenses for the government in this area. The fewer cars on the roads means the added benefit of a reduction in pollution for the environment, a reduction is costs for those workers who no longer commute and most likely a reduction in traffic congestion, parking demands and road accidents. With companies employing the use of technology the need for workers to be physically present is not the same as it once was. New technologies allow the productivity of workers who tele-commute to be tracked just as effectively as is done in an office space.
