Resumen
This article deals with telecommuting as the last transition of the work environment,
through the history of economic thought. It is analyzed from different key aspects such
as, its conceptualization and proposal for classification, workers rights, motivation, and
telecommuting workers’ profiles, as well as areas of application.
Telecommuting is a labor market tendency that is currently transforming the idea that
humans need to leave home and move physically to a place of work; nowadays work can
be done from any place with access to a computer or the Internet. This fact requires us to
analyze the economic, administrative, or judicial consequences that it might carry.
