An experimental study of social and psychological aspects of teleworking
The last few years have seen a growth in interest in the concept of teleworking, and current predictions suggest that this could become a common mode of working in future. This paper describes an investigation into the working environment of teleworking, examining the currently-debated issues associated with it, and laying out the potential advantages and drawbacks. Views solicited from workers currently operating within a teleworking regime in a large UK organization are presented and discussed. A small-scale experimental study of the psychological and sociological effects associated with teleworking is then described, and the results and implications discussed. Finally, a set of teleworking guidelines for work managers is proposed.
