Telework Basics
Questions and answers
The key difference between the telework relationship and the in-office relationship is your manager cannot see what you are doing when you are working at home. It all comes down to trust. You can take a number of simple steps to earn your manager’s trust by:
- Doing your best work
- Completing work assignments on time
- Pitching in to help when needed (it is important to continue to be a team player even when teleworking)
- Volunteering for projects
- Working independently without the need for close supervision
- Keeping your supervisor and co-workers informed about what you are working on and what you have accomplished
