Covid-19: Telework in times of pandemic

Covid-19 is the penultimate of the pandemics that humanity has suffered throughout its history. It has affected all socio-economic strata and has had an impact on the traditional notion of the labour relations system. On the other hand, the proliferation of disinformation campaigns has been detected, which main, although not exclusive, scenario has been social media, that have generated debates about the beneficiaries of the dissemination of false information, fake news, as well as contributing to the constant questioning of official information. In Spain, an organisational model of service provision underused by companies before the lockdown has been implemented. It has changed the mentality of businesses as it has proven to increase productivity and reduce costs. Telework has just been regulated in Spain and the law leaves sensitive aspects to collective bargaining. Therefore, it is necessary to analyse the elements liable to be negotiated to collective bargaining and to propose guidelines that allow for a good negotiation and improvement of these aspects to make teleworking a quality one.
