Abstract
This article aims to discuss the phenomenon of teleworking, which was driven by the context of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020. It is noteworthy that the new narrative of capital, which, while extolling its benefits, tends to hide the risks, as well as the possibilities for reformulating business gains in the exploitation of human labor. To this end, the new work scenario is reviewed, based on the context of the so-called “modernization” of labor relations, considering the processes of intensifying working hours, appropriating the private space of workers' homes, making work and reproductive tasks compatible, especially by women, of isolation in relation to work groups and their political articulations, as well as psychological suffering and illness. Based on the pertinent bibliography and the analysis of secondary data on teleworking today, the regulation of these workers is problematized as a shaping element of the phenomenon.
