Tésits, R. (2007). Atypical possibilities of empolyment expansion in the underdeveloped regions – telework. Modern Geográfia, 2(1), 96–121.

The European Employment Strategy of the European Committee issued in 2003 had to face such novel challenges as accelerating economical changes, or the problematic of an aging population. In accordance with it, the main objectives of the strategy, besides the expansion of employment, are the increase in the quality and efficiency of labour and strengthened social cohesion. Among the priorities, we find the raised employment level of women and the retained working places of the elderly employees. The future expansion of employment will depend―among many factors―on the rate at which enterprises can organise labour with flexibility. Similarily to certain atypical employment forms, it is true for telework as well that problems arise in connection with the supply of flexible labour and not with the demand. The objectives of the present study are to explore the results and developmental potentials of the telework program of the MEL-MIC (Ministry of Informatics and Communication), to specify the motivation of employers and their criteria of selection, to assess the choice of activities fit for telework, to describe their manageable advantages and disadvantages, and to specify the communication channels of the employment form and the social situation of the employees.
