This book focuses on the analysis of telework and the participation of workers in technology. Both aspects are related to technology and work. Telework appears in the 80's of the twentieth century in an economic context presided by the decentralization and outsourcing of economic activity. In this context, telework will become a useful tool for the business world, as an alternative to traditional work, by facilitating the flexible production that governs the current international economic landscape. Regarding the participation of workers in the technology of companies, it should be said that this has been an objective long pursued by those since the Industrial Revolution was implemented. Since then, the impulses to democratize work have not ceased to happen, so that today participation is present - in its various forms, intensities and spheres - in most companies in Western countries, despite the obstacles of all kinds that have tried to stand in the way along the way.
