Careers Work at Home CWaH

Are there really any Careers that Work at Home? This is a statement that is well founded with todays Economy. A brief look and comparison of Annual Earnings on Indeed as of July 2010 show that Work at Home salaries averaged $36,000. Not bad for not driving to work and for no child care expense add ons. Home Business fares a little better at $58,000.


The Most Recent study done by the Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics, Found In May 2004, that 20.7 million persons usually did some work at home as part of their primary job. These workers, who reported working at home at least once per week, accounted for about 15 percent of total nonagricultural employment in May 2004, essentially the same percentage as in May 2001.

The likelihood of working at home varies greatly by occupation. This is not surprising, since some jobs are more readily done away from the workplace than others. Almost 30 percent of workers in management, professional, and related occupations reported working at home in May 2004. Nearly two-thirds of persons who usually worked at home were employed in these occupations.

From an industry perspective, workers employed in professional and business services, in financial activities, and in education and health services were among the most likely to work at home in 2004.

About 1 in 5 sales workers usually worked at home.

In contrast, only 3 percent of workers in production, transportation, and material moving occupations performed job-related work at home.


Of the 13.7 million wage and salary workers who usually did some work at home in 2004, about 3.3 million, or 1 in 4, had a formal arrangement with their employer to be paid for the time they put in at home.

About half of these paid home workers spent 8 hours or more per week working at home, and about 1 in 7 put in 35 hours or more per week at home.

On average, those with a formal arrangement to be paid for their work time at home logged about 19 hours per week at home.

About three-fourths of wage and salary workers who did job-related work at home on a regular basis did so without a formal arrangement to be paid for this work.

Of these 10.2 million workers just taking work home from the job, about 22 percent regularly worked 8 hours or more per week at home.


Of the 7.0 million self-employed persons who worked at home, two-thirds had a home-based business--that is, a business run from their home and no other location.

Nearly half of self-employed persons with a home-based business worked at least 8 hours per week at home, and almost 22 percent put in 35 hours or more at home.

On average, self employed persons with a home-based business worked 25 hours per week at home.

About 45 percent of self-employed persons with home-based businesses were in management, professional, and related occupations in May 2004.

Sixteen percent were employed in sales and related occupations.

Whites (16 percent) were twice as likely as blacks (8 percent) and Hispanics or Latinos (7 percent) to work at home, reflecting, at least in part, the relatively higher concentration of whites in occupations that are associated with work at home.

Among wage and salary workers who were taking work home without a formal arrangement to be paid for that work, the most common reason for working at home was to "finish or catch up on work" (56 percent).
