France: Hewlett Packard signs telework agreement
The French subsidiary of Hewlett Packard, the US-based IT multinational, signed in July 2010 a collective agreement on teleworking, providing guarantees for the staff involved.
Hewlett Packard has been using teleworking in France since the mid-1990s and the agreement signed on 12 July 2010, with all five trade unions represented in its operations, provides a framework for further development of the practice.
