Summary/Abstract: While the Telework Framework Agreement concluded on July 16, 2002 between the European Community Industrialists Association, the European Union of Craftsmen and Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises, the European Centre for Enterprises with Public Participation, and Enterprises of General Economic Interest and the European Confederation of Trade Unions on telecommunication defines it as "a form of organization and / or performance of work using information technology (...) achieved (...) regularly (...)", for our country Law no. 81/2018, although it resumes the reference to the "regular" character, contradicts it clearly and in an unconcealed manner, translating it into the fact that such work would take place "at least one day a month".We want to raise this issue, showing the consequences for practice and maintain a proposal for de lege ferenda formulated since 2010.
