Impacts of Teleworking under the NBN
Access Economics has been commissioned by the Department of Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy to undertake an analysis of the benefits of teleworking, including a broad quantitative assessment of the benefits of teleworking.
The term 'teleworking' is used broadly to refer to any work that is conducted outside of the designated place of business. This includes work undertaken at home, use of mobile devices in transit, or at a different place of business. Within this study the focus is on teleworking at home, as this is the form of teleworking where the NBN will be a key enabler.
