The work-from-home model gives companies the ability to source talent from a much broader group of applicants, and find people with specialized qualifications such as professional licenses and certifications, technical knowledge, management experience, selling skills, etc. At Convergys, we employ home-based workers across the country and find this model results in proven disaster recovery capability and greatly improved employee satisfaction, while enabling us to more easily adjust to fluctuating workloads and business demands. Among the benefits to employees are better work/life balance and lower commuting costs. To help quantify this benefit, we’ve even created a Lifestyle Benefits Calculator that we offer would-be applicants to our home agent program.
-Rick Owens, Sr. Director Home Agent, Convergys
