The necessity to establish regulatory frameworks for telework in
Cyprus has become increasingly pronounced in the modern work
environment for various reasons including the existence of
technological advancements which have made remote work more
feasible and efficient, the operation of businesses on a global
scale, work-life balance considerations and the need for businesses
to maintain operations under various circumstances. This need has
been notably evident in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic,
which served as a catalyst for the rapid and widespread adoption of
remote work practices. The transition to teleworking presents both
opportunities and challenges, requiring careful consideration of
aspects such as work-life balance, employee rights, health and
safety issues, productivity metrics, and data security.
