European
Project TeleworkerSummary The Foundation University-Enterprise is proud to present their project "Teleworker" to the Telework Awards 1998. The award category selected is number 5 "Best Public Initiative", as the project has been developed for and together with the regional government "Junta de Castilla y Leon". The project represents the basic tools for obtaining know how about teleworking, the bases being the CD-ROM, and expanding and amplifying the information and services offered in the Virtual Telework Association, something completely new and innovative in our region. The reason for which, in our opinion, the project should be selected is the fact that it offers information for persons who do not know about teleworking, as well as for persons already teleworking. The information is also of value within the regional government itself, as teleworking is considered one of the new ways of working, mentioned in the regional employment plan. Short Description The Foundation University-Enterprise (FUEVA) in collaboration with the Directorate General for Employment of the regional government of Castilla and Leon (Junta de Castilla y León) has realised two different type of actions within the framework of the project "Teleworker". The project offers a wide range of services related to teleworking to companies, mainly SMEs, and individuals of the region, with the aim of disseminating, promoting and stimulating the implementation of teleworking practices in the region. The two resulting products are complementary in the way that the CD-ROM pretends to introduce the term teleworking, its advantages, worries, etc. to the general public. The Virtual Association for Teleworking pretends to offer a more detailed information, as well as a consultancy for the implementation of teleworking, being in that sense an extension of the CD-ROM. The results of the action concerning the development of a CD-ROM on teleworking has been the realisation of a CD-ROM, which includes, in an easy accessible way, all kind of information related to teleworking and which is of interest for the target public. The Virtual Teleworking Association of Castilla and Leon is the creation of an interactive web page, implemented in Internet, and accessible through the server of FUEVA, which offers al types of information and services, some freely accessible, others only accessible for members.
