Telework

A formal work arrangement that allows an employee/contract staff to perform work during their approved work schedule at a location different from their official duty station through the use of technology which allows the employee/contract staff to access normal work material (e.g., email, electronic documents, applications, drives). Includes regular telework (i.e., employee/contract staff works from an alternate work location a minimum of 2 regularly scheduled days every month) and ad hoc/as-needed or occasional telework (i.e., employee/contract staff works from an alternate work location that is typically as needed or less than 2 days per month).
