The contemporary world has been characterized by profound changes in work relations. A few decades ago, almost all workers were hired on a full-time basis, carrying out their activities on the company's buildings. Today, several of these conditions have been made more flexible, including the place where the work is done, with the increasing of the teleworking, also called home-office, when carried out at the worker's residence. The research whose results are here exposed had as aimto analyze the perceptions of workers in an automobile industry inserted in a pilot home-office experienceabout the advantages and disadvantages of this way of working. After a literature review on the advantages and disadvantages that are usually attributed to this system, these workers were consulted at two different moments: before the beginning of this system and eight months after it. The results indicate a prevalence of the positive aspects, revealing, however, the need of measures so it won't cause damage to workers or their productivity.
