Redesign Your Job to
Telecommute: A Pre-Proposal
Planning Exercise
All the work-life experts agree: The proven, most
effective way to get approval to telecommute is to make your
request with a written proposal outlining the details of
your redesigned work arrangement.
The planning steps below get you started. Print out this
page and complete the crucial pre-proposal preparation so
you can insert the custom portions of your proposal.
Ready? Start the steps.
Step 1. List the various work functions of your
current position. Be thorough; use rich, detailed
descriptions related to your job role. (This reminds your
manager and others who may review your proposal how you are
contributing to the organization.) Draw on your official job
description and keep a work log to aid you.
Step 2. Carefully think through the specifics of each
job function. Then label each function with the letter
corresponding to the selections below.
A This function has to be
performed at the main office
B This function could be done at my home office
(i.e., which parts of your job are portable?)
C This function could be done at either
location or “blended” to be done at both
D This function could be delegated to a
subordinate on my days away from the main office
E This function could be reassigned to a
coworker or another department
F This function could be eliminated
Step 3. Insert your results into the format found
below the introduction paragraph in the “B. Job
Responsibilities” section of the Telecommuting
Proposal Package.
