Upon making Atlanta home in 2016, Mercedes-Benz USA quickly realized through surveys and observations that commuting to work was a widespread pain-point and expenditure among employees. The findings mobilized Mercedes to create a custom telework program that allows employees the ability to telework one day a week. The result? A lift in employee engagement scores, and 98% of employees reporting that telework was good for the organization. Plus, a survey of managers indicated that 48% saw productivity increase with addition of telework and another 42% saw no change in productivity.
