Professor E Jeffrey Hill has led a study to be published in the June 2010 issue of Journal of Family Psychology under the name “Finding an Extra Day or Two.” In the study, the researchers conclude that telecommuters can work an average of 57 hours per week without feeling the conflict with family life as compared to 38 hours for office bound employees.
