The telecommuting phenomenon, that was already applied in some sectors and companies, was a fundamental solution for economic maintenance during the COVID-19 pandemic crisis experienced in 2020. However, with the need and urgency that the calamitous situation required, some cares may not have been taken for the transition to that way of work, specially the ergonomic. The present article seeks correlate the orientations and de ergonomic cares of the companies and telecommuter, using for such, as method, the quantitative research in the descriptive way. To do this, it has been opted for the application of an online questionnaire, in order to cover a larger number of people to form the object of this study. Its responses select the identification of the telecommuter, as well as the guidance received on the topic by their employer, in addition to the care taken, whether by free initiative or company guidance. It is from the quantitative analysis of these real cases, that the work collaborates to understand the ergonomic aspects, showing that the decision of the employers in giving ergonomic orientations leads to a bigger ergonomic caution by the telecommuter and also can become an important source of useful information for companies for future telecommuting implementations.
