人们经常认为，在家工作将是英国许多人未来的工作方式，而且这一趋势已经开始。本文通过分析劳动力调查的数据来审查这些索赔，劳动力调查在不同时期询问了有关工作地点的问题。确定了七个关键假设，包括围绕在家工作的程度和增长、对信息和通信技术的依赖、普遍存在的低工资、平均工资率、性别问题、少数民族参与和家庭组成等问题。结果描绘了一幅复杂多样的画面，表明那些在家工作的人并不构成一个同质的群体。该文件特别强调了非体力劳动者和体力劳动者以及主要、部分和有时在家工作的人之间的差异。
It is frequently suggested that working at home will be the future of work for many people in the UK and that trends in this direction are already well underway. This paper examines these claims by analysing data from the Labour Force Survey which has, at various times, asked questions about the location of work. Seven key hypotheses are identified, including issues surrounding the extent and growth of working at home, reliance on information and communication technology, prevalence of low pay, average pay rates, gender issues, ethnic minority participation and household composition. The results paint a variegated and complex picture which suggests that those who work at home do not comprise a homogeneous group. The paper in particular highlights differences between non-manual and manual workers, and those who work mainly, partially and sometimes at home.
