Non-phone work at home jobs tend to be the most popular. This is because not everyone can easily work from home with a phone.
Most phone jobs require no background noise, and that is not something everyone can guarantee when they have children or pets at home with them all day.
If you’re looking for a work at home job and would prefer something that doesn’t require the use of a phone, hopefully you’ll find some ideas on where to apply after browsing the list below. I’ve gone through the last several batches of work at home job leads we’ve posted to find the companies that are still hiring AND don’t require you to use a phone.
Good luck!
