What are the disadvantages of telecommuting?

One of the disadvantages of telecommuting or work from home, is that it minimizes physical contact
with other people, given that the communication happens through technologic devices. When this
communication is based on written messages or texts, it can lead to confusions at the moment of doing
the activities or tasks. It is even possible that the results in some of the tasks are not the expected, since
it will depend on the interpretation that the receiver of the message gives to the text. This inconvenient
is minimized by the use of more complete technological mediums, such as video-calling, video-
conferences, among others. Another disadvantage of telecommuting, are the faults in the net’s
connectivity that the workers may suffer, given that the connection is vital to maintain the punctuality
on tasks and an effective communication.
