Juanma Lorente, abogado laboralista: “Si tienes un familiar a tu cargo, puedes solicitar el teletrabajo”

Labor lawyer Juanma Lorente has stated that employees with dependent family members are entitled to request remote work arrangements. This legal perspective highlights telework as a primary mechanism for balancing professional obligations with personal caregiving responsibilities.

While the option to request remote work exists, Lorente clarifies that the ability to perform job functions from a distance does not automatically grant every employee the right to telecommute. The statement underscores that such requests are subject to specific conditions rather than being a universal entitlement for all workers.
