Additionally, who would verify where does Bob actually live? Maybe he also lives next door to the office but told the employer he lives 4 hours away? Very interesting idea but impractical.
I think that the remote vs onsite aspect eventually will be implicitly factored into the salary by the market.
Onsite jobs will need to pay more to have people come to the office and trade their free time for commuting.
Fully remote jobs will be able to pay less because people would see that as an added bonus.
- michaelmrose 4y agoWouldn't you have a maximum you are willing to pay for commuting expressed as a percentage of your compensation, rely on background/credit check to flag accounts for probable fraud for HR to look into, and fire people you found defrauding your company? Also anyone willing to commit a crime to pad their paycheck is probably doing other nefarious things so they want to dig a little deeper besides? This would be so trivial to uncover in most cases I can't imagine this would be a big deal.
