摘要:Telework has been the subject of increasing interest in recent years, especially in Europe since the European Commission’s adoption of a framework agreement on telework in 2002. The findings presented here stem from a research project conducted in a major Belgian IT organisation. The research focused on mobile work, which encompasses working in clients' offices, hotels and elsewhere. It is a broader concept than the more popular traditional forms of telework, which is confined to working from home. The research examines in detail the sequences of workplaces encountered by mobile workers, which is one of the important features of the research. This aspect is of particular significance since mobile work is considered to have increased in recent years but few surveys have analysed this phenomenon in terms of contents, sequences of workplaces, and as a source of job satisfaction and dissatisfaction. Our contribution lies in a better understanding of the reality of mobile work, as telework in the traditional sense appears to be moving in the direction of mobile work.
