The work process:

The KM exercises knowledge/judgment about the content, but does not need to agonize over word-smithing.  A separate copy-editor performs final stylistic editing (but does not change the meaning) with "track changes" in Word turned on.  The KM then reviews any tracked changes to ensure the correct meaning has been preserved, and performs a final read-through of the entire article and makes any remaining edits so that he/she is 100% happy with the final product.  Someone else then posts the article on the live website.

Days per week/telecommuting:

KMs work at least 2-3 days per week, primarily in our office in Center City, Philadelphia; telecommuting occasionally or one day a week is acceptable.
