Virtual Office
Rather than employees driving to a central office to work, Virtual
Office creates a fully functional worksite from home. The implementation
of Virtual Office reduces carbon emissions related to employee
transportation to work. Benefits to the State of implementing Virtual
Office include the elimination of office space, increases in
productivity and reductions in turnover and absenteeism.
The
Governor’s Office of Efficiency Review
has spearheaded the State’s Virtual Office effort. They have created a
Virtual Office Tool Kit to help
agencies implement this important initiative.
AHCCCS
has successfully implemented virtual office on a large scale. Since
implementing virtual office, AHCCCS has transitioned more than 300
employees, or 20% of their workforce, to full-time at-home employees,
and saved $677,000 annually by terminating leases on two office
buildings. Increased employee productivity ranges from 10% to 45% and
turnover has been reduced by 16.5%.
