Travail à domicile, salarié ou indépendant. Incidence des nouvelles technologies de l'information et de la communication

Abstract

As a result of past débates on the concept of legal subordination, in France, homeworking has long been considered the equivalent of wage-earning. However, homeworkers, mostly women, endure relatively poor conditions compared with other wage-earners. These problems are further exasperated by improvements in information and communications technology, due to the fact that homework in an irregular occupation, performed on peicework and without social links.
