Teleworking and Rural Development

published on January 21st, 1997

This is the final report of a research project commissioned by the Rural Development Commission from the Institute for Employment Studies. Using a combination of information derived from interviews with employers and experts, and cluster analysis of the relevant data, it looks at the characteristics of four different types of teleworking and plots which English counties are most likely to be selected as locations for each type.

The report concludes by recommending initiatives which could help to encourage positive forms of teleworking in rural areas.

The authors

The report was written by Ursula Huws, Sheila Honey and Stephen Morris who are respectively an associate fellow, a research fellow and a research officer of the Institute for Employment Studies.
