Abstract

The proliferation of the teleworking phenomenon entails a number of aspects, such as the organization of working time or the work safety and health of teleworkers, which are not fully covered by the current legislation. This puts teleworkers at an increased risk of being treated less favorably than regular workers and implicitly calls for additional protective measures for teleworkers. Consequently, the present paper offers an overview of the main legislative documents adopted by the European Union, which concern teleworkers directly or indirectly, in order to ascertain the extent to which the current legislative standards meet the specific needs of the teleworkers. Also relevant for this aim is the comparative law analysis which demonstrates how some states of the European Union have increased their efforts to amend their legal systems, in order to eliminate the discriminatory practices detrimental to teleworkers and to enhance the protection they enjoy. The study presents the different legislative perspectives of Germany, France, Spain, Italy.
