Summary/Abstract: The Law no. 81/2018 of teleworking refers to specific professions such as brokers, sales agents, employees involved in social media activity, analysts, programmers, accountants, financial and tax consultants, translators, etc. Teleworking is the form of work organization in which an activity that may be performed within the workplace organized by the employer is carried out by an employee, from a distance from this location, on a regular and voluntary basis, at least one day per month, using information and communications technology, based on an individual employment contract or an additional act. Prior this Law, the legal possibility an employee could work somewhere else than employer’s place, were by working at home, detachment or delegation agreement, or by signing a mobility clause. Teleworking regulation is in line with European legislation, responding to labor market needs and demands, but the application of teleworking legislation will raise problems, especially regarding the activities in the norms of safety and health at work and in terms of highlighting the hours provided by teleworkers and the controls performed by the representatives of the competent authorities.
