Remote work is a rapidly growing trend in the European job market. Although the concept goes back more than 50 years, and in some European countries the issue was first regulated by law over 20 years ago, it has become everyday life since the pandemic. Most employers realized that, sooner or later, remote, tele- or hybrid- work will unavoidably need to be implemented as a permanent solution rather than as an ad-hoc method of work in emergency situations.
Much has changed in the last two years, not only in the job market but also in the legislation of individual countries. This publication, European guide to support employers, seeks to shed greater light on the legal solutions currently implemented in 29 European countries, from the types of telework and the procedures for its implementation, to the obligations imposed on employers and the rights of employees to aspects of liability.
The contributors for the legal solutions in Malta are Partner Dr. Charlene Mifsud and Associate Dr. Luana Cuschieri.
