Agencies Aren't Sure How Much They Are Saving By Letting Employees Telework
Government Executive: Federal agencies cannot assess the value of allowing employees to telework, according to a new report, as they do not collect data on all the benefits or costs involved in letting staff work remotely.
The Office of Personnel Management should issue guidance informing agencies how to identify the net savings from telework policy, the Government Accountability Office found, and collect more data that demonstrate they are cutting costs. Nearly half of the federal workforce is eligible to work from home, GAO said, but agencies and Congress are incapable of making informed decisions on telework without more analysis of its cost and benefits.
