ILO and Eurofound to publish joint report on telework

The International Labour Organization (ILO) will launch a joint report with Eurofound entitled Working anytime, anywhere: The effects on the world of work, on Wednesday 15 February.

At a time when the use of digital technology is constantly growing, the new research highlights opportunities and challenges of expanding telework. It synthesises research carried out by both organisations in 15 countries, including ten EU Member States as well as Argentina, Brazil, India, Japan and the United States.

The study also provides recommendations to accompany those sweeping changes.

The report and all associated material and information are under strict embargo until 12.00 GMT -13.00 Geneva/Brussels time on Wednesday 15 February.

Embargoed electronic copies of the report, and associated media material will be made available to journalists (only) upon request, starting in the morning of Wednesday, 15 February, by contacting newsroom@ilo.org .

For Geneva UN correspondents: A press briefing by the lead authors of the report, the ILO’s Jon Messenger and Eurofound’s Oscar Vargas, will be held - under embargo - on Wednesday, 15 February at 10:00 a.m. in press room 1 at the Palais des Nations in Geneva.

Interviews by print, web or broadcast media can be scheduled via the ILO Department of Communication: newsroom@ilo.org , +4122/799-7912.

Video coverage of the press conference will be made available for broadcasters upon request. The ILO TV studio and ISDN line may be booked by broadcasters wishing to interview the authors. Please contact the Department of Communication/Radio and TV Unit on +4122/799-7935 or multimedia@ilo.org.
