You work for a growing accounting firm in a large city. Before the pandemic forced most workers 

in the organization to work from home, you were aware that the company lost several promising
job applicants because they did not wish to spend two or more hours a day driving to and from
work. Upon inquiring with co-workers, you discover that just over half of the firm’s current
workforce commuted more than an hour each way. You’re aware of other firms and similar
businesses that have implemented a permanent telecommuting option for some employees.
When you bring this issue up to your boss at the next Zoom productivity meeting, she says that
she’d be willing to consider transitioning to a permanent telecommuting schedule as an option
for some employees but she needs more information first.
