Jobs at Home

Many people associate working from home with starting a home-based business and becoming an entrepreneur, but more and more employers are offering this option to workers in order to attract and retain top employees. In fact, 7.6 million employees conduct work from home every month.

If you want to make the case to a potential employer or your boss to let you work from home, keep a few things in mind. If possible, provide concrete examples of how this arrangement was successful in the past or how it will succeed.

n a tightening economy, many companies don't have the budgets to hire full-time personnel, but they do have the funds to hire a freelancer for short-term projects.
