K12 Interview with Susan Lowmiller, Academic Recruiter
If your company is not fully virtual and allows only some team members to work remotely, do you have specific guidelines or directives to keep remote workers engaged with the on-site team (e.g. periodic on-site meetings, annual retreats or trips, etc.)?
“K12 is mostly virtual, but not fully. Much of our upper-level management works from the main office in Herndon, Virginia as do other local staff. These employees are always allowed to work from home when needed and/or on certain days per week.
All of our student-facing staff work from home and attend student outings in their area once per month. Our schools also pay for their teachers to attend about twice-yearly professional development days where the entire school staff comes together for planning and camaraderie at either the school office (if large enough) or a conference center/resort.
Much of our corporate staff like HR business partners, recruiters, and finance also work from home. These groups collaborate over Zoom video conference on a daily basis and form lasting relationships as solid as any cube farm via Skype group chat. K12 brings these groups together in the Herndon office about once per year, but the bulk of our work is done in the peace of our homes without distractions or commutes.
To top it off, for the holidays, K12 showed the home-based staff that they care by shipping everyone a laptop bag full of holiday cookies.”

TTEC Interview with Colleen Ritchie, Senior Vice President
Within your business, how has remote work positively impacted employee productivity and efficiency?
“As an integral and integrated part of the TTEC team, Humanify @home associates enjoy the same benefits, training and supervision as associates at the company’s physical locations. This program’s associates have higher ENPS scores than traditional associates at brick and mortar sites because their needs are being served with an at-home model. TTEC also enables video meetings, regular coaching sessions, and collaborative forums so associates can better connect with colleagues both professionally and personally.
The Humanify @home solution combines the same quality management, security and operational excellence of TTEC’s onsite customer engagement center associates with the flexibility and cost-structure of a variable business model for clients. This enables TTEC to partner with clients to quickly scale CX programs as they grow or expand to meet seasonal demands. The program also offers redundancy when we enable our agile delivery model to quickly shift work from a physical site to remote work options.”

Net Transcripts Interview with Kimberly Padden, Talent Acquisition Manager
Has remote work always been utilized within your company’s business model? If so, for how many years has your business provided remote work options? If not, when did your company adopt remote work policies, and what benefits have emerged as a result of integrating those policies?
“At Net Transcripts, a VIQ Solutions company, our transcriptionists are independent contractors, and work fully remote. We have offered this remote working model for the past 32 years. This provides all of our transcribers the opportunity to set their own schedule and receive guidance from our supportive, in-office team whenever they need it. The contractors have the freedom to work part-time, full-time or all the time, as we have an abundance of orders to keep our transcribers busy.
We have found that providing a positive work-life balance and an uninterrupted work environment results in higher productivity and output of our remote transcriptionists. Additionally, giving our contractors more autonomy and control over their days, evenings, even weekends benefits the quality of work they produce.”
