T 2.53 Inadequate regulations concerning
substitution of teleworkers
In general, all tasks of a teleworker suppose and suggest that he/she is able to
work largely on an independent basis. One potential risk here is, that it maybe
difficult to find a substitute for a telecommuter who has fallen sick. In
particular, it may be difficult to arrange a transfer of documents and of data
from the affected teleworker's home workstation to the substitute’s if there is
no immediate possibility of accessing the teleworker’s home working place.
