    Work from Home: 3 Companies That Let You Work from Home

    Telecommuting
    is gaining in popularity right now, and it's no surprise. With the economy prompting companies to cut costs, and with more people interested in working from home, more businesses are seeing the benefit in telecommuting.

    Besides, technology makes it easy to outsource such functions as tech support, sales and customer service to people who work from home. All they need is high-speed Internet access, a little training and some basic home office equipment.

    Here are 3 companies that allow you to work from home via telecommuting:

    1. Jetblue allows fight reservation takers to work from home. JetBlue is perhaps one of the more famous examples of allowing telecommuting.

    2. Convergys, the telemarketing and call center company, also allows some to work from home. You do need a USB headset to participate, though, and in some cases Convergys limits who can participate.

    3. Working Solutions is a company that provides services in order processing, customer service, market research and other job descriptions, meant to fit your needs. Working solutions has won awards as a "place" to work.

    Do you know of any other companies that allow workers to engage in telecommuting?

    I agree. It is much cheaper for businesses and organizations to keep employees at home and not have to provide the facilities for them to work. However, I am a big proponent for starting home businesses to earn and income. I like the versatility and flexibility of a home-based business.
