Description This study considers the literature concerning remote employment, how early estimates suggested 30-50% of Americans would be working by the beginning of the 21st century. Surveys of top executives, though positive in outlook, would lead one to predict just over 13% of the population is involved in full-time remote work practices at the end of the last century and decreasing between 2006 and 2008. This paper suggests a technological solution that offers a means of resolving trust and control issues and/or determining the true underlying management dilemmas that might inhibit the growth of daily remote work.
