“Our telework experience has enabled a very valued member of our team, who physically was unable to actually get to our offices downtown due to pregnancy complications, to stay on our team and be a valued and contributing member of our organization until she went on maternity leave. The benefits were seen on both sides. She was able to continue working and not have to go on short-term disability or start her maternity leave early which was a financially positive arrangement for her and her family. For the company, we were able to continue working with this very talented individual who delivered the same high quality of work and customer service from home as she always had as well as allowed us time to find and train a suitable replacement.”
