The amendment to the Labour Code, which entered into force on 1 March 2021, brought about fundamental changes in the legal regulation of domestic work and telework. It changed not only the concept of domestic work and telework, its positive and negative definition, but also the content of domestic work. For the employers, the amendment to the Labour Code extended the scope of legal obligations and for the employees the scope of subjective rights. The rights and obligations of the employee and the employer in the performance of domestic work or telework depend mainly on the way of organizing working time. If the working time of domestic work or telework is scheduled by the employer, his/her interference in the way the employee performs work is significantly wider than in the scheduling of working time by the employee himself/herself, for which there are more deviations compared to the performance of „standard“ employment. In addition to their positive effects, new technologies and related digital forms of work have begun to blur the differences between an employee‘s work and family life. Therefore, for the first time, the legislator has regulated the employee‘s right to „disconnect“.

The aim of the article is to present the concept and role of teleworking. It discusses opportunities to use information technology to activate individuals who face the threat of professional exclusion, the disabled, those on leave from work to raise children, or for other reasons connected with the household. It also shows teleworking as a new property of modern organisations, one that has arisen thanks to the dynamic growth of information-communications technology. The article looks at the opportunities and the threats telework brings about. It presents both national and international experience and the ever widening virtualisation of economic activity which would clearly indicate that teleworking will become an essential complement to traditional forms of work organisation.

Political and economic changes taking place in developed countries since the late nineties led to a major transformation of work systems, creating new types of work, such as telework, virtual teams or work at a distance. The very term teleworking and virtual teams or virtual organizations are quite new in the world of scientific literature. In fact, they appeared in the late twentieth century together with the development of technology, computing, communication systems and this in turn led to an even greater access to information. Continuous technological development has even greater than ever influence on management, and especially on the improvement and creation of value added. The amount of digital information is constantly growing in all fields: sent over the Internet, telephone networks and the use of other forms of electronic media. This article explains the concept of telework, virtual teams, and focuses on the consequences of their usage in practice by companies which are operating in Poland, such as IBM, Hewlett-Packard, McKinsey & Company, UPS, Irevna or companies belonging to the so-called 'Big Four'.

The current situation creates an optimal legal space for the renaissance of home office and telework for the coming years. The expansion of the material personal scope of home office and telework is fundamentally influenced by new technologies and the related digitization of work processes. A more massive expansion of the legal space for a broader understanding of home office and telework was also created by the abnormal situation associated with the coronavirus pandemics, to which the amendment to the Labour Code of 2. 4. 2020 responded. The author analyses the new labour law regulation of performing work from home under the influence of the coronavirus pandemics and, at the same time, she analyses the existing legal status of the general regulation of home office and telework provided in § 52 of the Labour Code. Through the analysis of foreign legal regulations as well as the anchoring of these institutes in the international law and in the EU law, she proposes ways to improve the legal model of home office and telework existing in the Slovak labour law regulation.
