What term describes employees who work for a company from home using a company computer connected over a modem?

• A. Trade-offs
• B. Total Revenue
• C. Telecommuters
• D. Trade Secrets

Answer: (C)

Telecommuting describes employees who work from a location outside the office, using telecommunications to access company systems. When someone works from home on a company computer connected through a modem, they’re engaging in telecommuting because the work is done remotely and relies on telecommunications to stay connected to the company network. The other terms aren’t about remote work: trade-offs are about balancing costs and benefits, total revenue is a measure of sales, and trade secrets are confidential information. So the best fit is telecommuters.
