Improving Productivity Through Telecommuting In an effort to respond to the problems of cumbersome and costly commuting of employees to their primary worksites due to traffic congestion and other factors, the Seattle Federal Executive Board's (FEB) Information Resource Management Committee joined with the General Services Administration's Cooperative Administrative Support Unit to establish telecommuting centers in the Seattle area. The FEB surveyed federal agencies around Seattle to develop a directory of alternative worksites. Use of these facilities is limited to no-cost, not-to-interfere basis with the host facility -- the host facility retains full control and authority over the availability, scheduling, and use of its office space. FEB member agencies has established agreements with employees to use the alternate worksites in the following ways: (1) 1-3 days per week on a regular basis; (2) on an ad-hoc basis to support specific projects; and (3) on an emergency basis when the primary worksite becomes unavailable or unreachable by employees.
