teleworkers
Work-from-home staff
Teleworkers are employees who work remotely, typically from home, rather than commuting to a central office.
The term emphasizes the role of telecommunications technology—internet, phone, video conferencing—in making such arrangements possible.
The company's teleworkers log in from three different time zones.
Telework gained mainstream acceptance during the COVID-19 pandemic.
