Telecommuting and remote jobs benefit workers, help companies cut costs
Utah resident Steven Singley used to work in an office across the street from his home. But it took him about 30 minutes to get to his job.
Singley, 41, is a quadriplegic. He gets around in an electric wheelchair. His arms and legs were paralyzed 19 years ago. A pickup he was driving veered off a two-lane road late at night and flipped six times.
To get to his J.C. Penney Co. call center job in suburban Salt Lake City, Singley had to steer his wheelchair out of his condo and across the street. He then would call someone to let him into the building and take him up an elevator so he could get situated at his desk.
