On 7.2.01, the Social Dialogue Committee in the telecommunications sector officially adopted guidelines for the organisation of telework in the sector. The agreed guidelines are the result of a joint political statement from telecoms operators and trade unions sent as a contribution to the Lisbon Summit in March 2000. The telework guidelines provide a Europe-wide framework for the implementation of telework by the telecommunications operators represented within the Social Dialogue Committee. The guidelines stress that telework constitutes a form of work organisation whose increasing use is a clear sign of a trend towards a more flexible and more mobile workplace. |
