Vouglanis, Taxiarchis and Abdulla, Khadija (2025) Teleworking as an employment opportunity for people with disabilities and special educational needs in Greece. World Journal of Advanced Research and Reviews, 27 (2). pp. 731-740. ISSN 2581-9615

For teleworkers, there is flexibility in work and balance in personal life and work. In addition, a better standard of living is observed because people have more free time, less stress, lower travel costs and can stay permanently in any area they wish. However, there is a risk that right limits (hours, private life) are not set in working from home or in the social isolation of employees. Teleworking increases the supply of work and simultaneously reduces the unemployment of people with disabilities and special educational needs. It also allows people with disabilities to work equally with other employees.
