What is teleworking?

There are two kinds of teleworking:

  • Working at home, such as teleworkers and traditional outworkers.
  • Working from home, such as field sales reps or mobile workers.

Teleworking is growing rapidly. In 2005, 2.4 million people worked mainly from home for at least a day a week, using a computer and a telephone link to their employer, or, if self-employed, to clients.
