Abstract

The first edition of this book appears at a time when working from home has become especially relevant due to the spread and the impacts of the corona virus pandemic. The impacts and consequences of Covid-19 are already reflected in large numbers of unemployment around the world, which may resemble the most serious global economic crisis since the Great Depression of 1929. Guided by the experience and changes that occurred after the crisis of 1929 and the global financial crisis of 2008-10, major changes in the modalities of work and employment can be expected. Further, changes in the management and leadership styles following the pandemic can be expected as more people are encouraged work from home. Although the issue of working from home can be approached from several angles (psychological, sociological, medical, or otherwise), this book deals with the economic and legal aspects, with the intention to emphasize the most important issues and problems faced by employees in this domain. First, the book covers the necessary tools, behaviours, and advantages/disadvantages of working from home that everyone should think about before making a step forward and embarking on this type of employment. Whether doing a job in a company or working for yourself, working from home can be a challenge. A study of the impacts of the pandemic could be very helpful. Therefore, we expect that this book, with its comprehensive approach, will stimulate interests among the academics, the public, decision-makers, and those who would like to move into self-employment as away of achieving their professional ambitions. We believe that the information contained in this bool will help the concerned parties to adapt to working at home, using a professional approach, as well as facing the challenges associated with working from home.
