Teleworka – A Productivity App to e-Commute & Work from home
Teleworking, also known as telework, e-commuting, work from home, or telecommuting is a way of rendering and receiving services without a physical meeting point.
It works fine where the service is more of counsel, recommendation, tutoring, and advice.
With mobile communication technology, you can use your smartphones or computers with internet facilities to have a video chat with people around the globe.
We now have virtual doctors, lawyers, teachers, and financial experts who work from home and offer their services to clients without having any office.
This has helped to reduce operating costs, increase productivity, work hours, level of flexibility, and improve the rate of employee retention.
All you need do is install a teleworking app on your device and set it up for video chat with people.
