Assignment 2: Telecommuting and the Mobile Worker

Due Week 4 and worth 100 points

The number of American telecommuters is expected to increase by 29 million telecommuters, or 43% of the workforce, by 2016 as more work gets performed from remote locations. Mobile workers can work from wherever they are and use the IT / IS technology necessary to access co-workers, company or corporate infrastructure, intranets, and other information sources.

Write a two to three (2-3) page paper in which you:

1. Describe the impact of telecommuting on energy conservation, IT operational costs, “green computing,” and shifts in telecommuters’ lifestyles (e.g., parents, disability, etc.).

2. Describe how the business infrastructure should be designed so that employees will be able to continue to perform business functions in the event of a disaster (e.g., storm, hurricane, or earthquake) that destroys or makes it impossible to access the buildings.

3. Determine four advantages and four disadvantages of telecommuting from an IT manager’s point of view. Elaborate on each advantage and disadvantage.

4. Examine the effect of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) to the IT infrastructure with regard to security, IT support, knowledge, and data management, green computing, and telecommuting.

5. Use at least three quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify as quality resources.
