Lawmakers and employers are forced to rethink their approach to the form of employment concerning the state of the environment and an increasing number of accidents and traffic jams.

Moreover, it points out the conditions that must be met in its implementation. In addition, there is an analysis of legislative aspect of and comparison of current state of telework in different countries. To conclude, the paper offers the analysis of the suitability of teleworking application
