eWorkPlace "Telework Twin Cities" April 11-24, 2010

Governor Tim Pawlenty and the mayors of Minneapolis, St. Paul, Bloomington and Burnsville have each proclaimed April 2010 as "Explore and Experience Telework Month." In support, eWorkPlace, a state-sponsored telework program for the Twin Cities metro area, its employers and individual community members is announcing “Telework Twin Cities."

Celebrating Earth Day 2010 in Minnesota
eWorkPlace "Telework Twin Cities"
April 11 - 24, 2010

Twin Cities metro area commuters are making the pledge to telework for one or more days per week from April 11 – 24, and have the chance to win a mini-notebook computer, an Apple iPad, and more great prizes!

Participants can access free telework training, download a sample proposal to address with their manager and learn the “business case” for telework. Telework benefits the environment by reducing CO2 emissions, promotes workplace efficiency, saves time, money and energy and reduces traffic congestion.

With the assistance from Mn/DOT and from researchers at the Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs at the University of Minnesota, you will be counted as a person who is making a difference! Celebrate the Earth!
