Talking About Telework
and e-work, call and contact center, multilocational
work
Telework and new forms of work organisation have become
important aspects of the drive to create employment in Europe and elsewhere.
The European Union and national governments within Europe are keenly
aware that the employment opportunities created by flexible and distance
working must not be won at the cost of the security of individuals or
equal opportunities for everyone.
Euro-Telework is committed to the idea that new production
methods and ways of organising work must be built on a solid foundation
of collective discussion and social dialogue if they are to bring real
and sustainable benefits. Euro-Telework is the follow-up to Models
of Industrial Relations for Telework Innovation (MIRTI), a project
whose five language handbook represents a pioneering cross-border approach
to best practice in telework (also available in a cd-rom version: contact
r.rizzo@iol.it).
Euro-Telework has brought together organisations in all
15 member states of the EU, plus Norway, to encourage social dialogue
and provide useful information for those involved in that dialogue at
local, national or European levels. The project has been co-ordinated
by the European Trade Union Confederation, ETUC, and focuses particularly
on the needs of worker representatives and their organisations.
Euro-Telework has also included a number of specialist research
organisations, technical partners, and individual experts. Details
of all project participants can be found on this site. After the
project conclusion, some of them have accepted to go on updating this
site on a voluntary basis. This opportunity is also open to other contributors,
from EU and non EU countries. For additional information please contact:
r.rizzo@iol.it. The project has produced:
Four European reports on telework regulation, vocational
training, equal opportunities, and call centres, based on national
overviews from the 16 partner countries
Materials for use at conferences, educational seminars, and
meetings concerned with employment and labour market changes within
the Information Society
Two European-level seminars on telework and a series of national
meetings
This website which contains contracts, case studies, collective
agreements, and other documents concerning telework
