Download or read book The Telecommuting Adoption Process written by Jun-Ru Yen and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The substitution of travel by telecommunication has been advocated as a strategy to reduce congestion on transportation facilities and thereby reduce fuel consumption and air pollutant emissions. Work-at-home schemes and workplace decentralization with satellite work centers are two alternatives being explored, as well as many other nontraditional approaches to structure workplace activities and worker responsibilities. The goal of this report is to offer a comprehensive framework of the interactions between telecommuting and travel behavior and to develop a mathematical model of the telecommuting adoption process. The framework identifies two principal actors in the decision process, the employee and employer. Discrete choice models are employed to formulate the adoption process of both employee and employer. These choice models are based on the ordered-response theory and the normality assumptions of the disturbances, known as the ordinal probit model. The models are calibrated using stated-preference survey data from three Texas cities.

Book excerpt: Telecommuting has been regarded as a powerful tool to reduce traffic congestion, pollution and energy consumption. It also supposed to improve lifestyle quality and job satisfaction by providing employees with flexible schedules with which to address their work load and personal requirements whilst also enhancing recruitment capability and productivity and significantly reducing costs. Nevertheless, a strong resistance to the adoption of telecommuting still persists. In this book, first published in 1996, state of the art demand modelling techniques are used to delve into critical issues raised by the question of telecommuting. The benefits and costs of telecommuting are investigated in an effort to provide concrete evidence to inform the private sector’s adoption decision process and the public sector’s policy design. This title will be of interest to students of business studies and human resource management.

Download or read book The Cambridge Handbook of Technology and Employee Behavior written by Richard N. Landers and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-14 with total page 1435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experts from across all industrial-organizational (IO) psychology describe how increasingly rapid technological change has affected the field. In each chapter, authors describe how this has altered the meaning of IO research within a particular subdomain and what steps must be taken to avoid IO research from becoming obsolete. This Handbook presents a forward-looking review of IO psychology's understanding of both workplace technology and how technology is used in IO research methods. Using interdisciplinary perspectives to further this understanding and serving as a focal text from which this research will grow, it tackles three main questions facing the field. First, how has technology affected IO psychological theory and practice to date? Second, given the current trends in both research and practice, could IO psychological theories be rendered obsolete? Third, what are the highest priorities for both research and practice to ensure IO psychology remains appropriately engaged with technology moving forward?
