telecommuter
Works from home
A telecommuter is someone who works from home or another location outside the traditional office, typically using computers and telecommunications to stay connected with colleagues and complete tasks.
The term emerged in the late 20th century as technology made remote work feasible.
Our company has more telecommuters than in-office staff now.
Telecommuter implies a formal work arrangement rather than occasional working from home.
