The last few years have seen a growth in interest in the concept of teleworking, and current predictions suggest that this could become a common mode of working in future. This paper describes an investigation into the working environment of teleworking, examining the currently‐debated issues associated with it, and laying out the potential advantages and drawbacks. Views solicited from workers currently operating within a teleworking regime in a large UK organization are presented and discussed. A small‐scale experimental study of the psychological and sociological effects associated with teleworking is then described, and the results and implications discussed. Finally, a set of teleworking guidelines for work managers is proposed.
