Despite a macroeconomic slowdown now taking us into recession, job market growth continues to emerge in technology. Many of the IT services and solutions firms have jobs for people to work a 4-day work week and or telecommute. There are tech jobs in every U.S. State and City, according to an American Electronics Association Cybercities 2008 and Cyberstates 2008 Reports. Many of the IT services and solutions firms have jobs for people to work a 4-day work week and or telecommute. Electronic downloads from Info Tech Employment provide IT staffing and solutions firms in every U.S. State and City with flexible workhours and work locations.

Technology is one area where people can work from their computers. Telephone, laptop, portable storage device, Web, and VoIP make it possible for people to:

• Carry a laptop and portable external storage device to transport work

• Use the Web to access an organizations Intranet to do work

• Conduct work from anywhere using the Web

• Use software to access their work computer

• Talk to associates on the phone

• Co-share or no on-site work space

IT executives that allow workers to telecommute will see benefits beyond what meets the eye. Soaring fuel prices that take a bite out of employees' wallets create dissatisfaction with pay. CIO's can find and retain good tech employees by making a 4-day work week part of the hiring package. Being an employer of choice ensures a company it can retain a great workforce. This is the same whether the company argues for the for a salary bump - "You are saving on gasoline; we are saving on emissions; it's a win-win."

A tech worker going to make the argument to an employer who doesn't have a 4-day work week or telecommuting can find plenty of resources how to do it. The website www.telework.gov, managed by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management and the General Services Administration tells about telecommuting in Federal government.. Another good resource is the World Environmental Organization's Web site, which includes a list of the top telecommuting-related sites.
