Are you stuck in a rut at work and going nowhere? Do you hate your day job or hate your daily commutes to and from work? Are you not making enough money at your current job? If you've answered yes to any of these questions, then working from home could be something you'd enjoy.
Did you know that many companies are hiring people to work from home? There are legitimate companies who hire people to work full time and part time from home. Fortune 500 companies hire employees to work from home. Many companies have their employees working from the office a couple of days a week and the rest of the days, their employees work from home.
There are many benefits for both employees and their employers when people work from home. Some of the benefits to work from home include the following:
• Flexible Hours / Schedule - employees do not have to work the 9 to 5 jobs. This can be very helpful for mothers and fathers with children. It can help them save on childcare costs, schooling costs, etc...
• Lower transportation costs - This one is self-explanatory. There is no need to jump in the car, pay for gas, and drive to work or get to the bus or train station.
• Healthier lifestyle - people are not stuck in their cars or sitting on a bus or train for hours a week. They can put their time to better use such as exercising or cooking. People with longer commutes often have poorer diets as they have less time to prepare good meals. Many work at home employees get better night sleep as they do not waste hours of their days commuting to and from work. People also have less exposure to their unhealthy coworkers who often spread their germs or spread the flu during flu seasons.
• Possible Tax Write Off - If you run your own business, there can be some tax write offs for your business. If you work for a company and have your own home office, there can also be some write offs. Consult your accountant or lawyer to find out if you qualify for any tax write offs.
• No distractions from coworkers - Many employees who work from home often get more accomplished at home than they do in the office. Yes, there can be some distractions at home, such as television or kids, but the work needs to get done. Some employees focus better when left alone to do the work than they do with others around them.
These are only a few benefits of working from home. This list can be expanded and go on for pages. The main point here is if you do the type of job that can be done over the phone or Internet, then working from home could be for you. There are job opportunities for people who want to work full time from home as well as part time opportunities. If you have a full time job currently that you don't like, you have the opportunity to start working from home part time before you make a full transition to working from home full time. You just have to go out and find that opportunity.
