“…Then work away from the employer's premises became more sophisticated, causing telework to evolve and spread out to other industries and countries (Haddon and Lewis 1994). Finally, academic debate caught up with the rising new mode of work, and its advantages and disadvantages were discussed across many disciplines (Bailey and Kurland 2002;Cascio 2000;Di Martino and Wirth 1990;Duxbury and Neufeld 1999;Duxbury et al 1998;Fritz et al 1994;Haddon and Lewis 1994;Handy and Mokhtarian 1995;Kurland and Bailey 1999;Mokhtarian 1998;Wellman et al 1996;Zedeck 1992).…”

In the summer of 2013 Yahoo's Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Marissa Mayer, gave a public interview at the Twelfth Annual Templeton Lecture for Economic Liberty and Constitution 1 where she explained why the company decided to abandon its popular 'work from home' policy: I had heard from lots of people all over the company, who said 'Hey, the fact that our team is distributed, or the fact that we sometimes have to stop and coordinate with someone from home, causes drag. And so we said that, as a general principle. . ., we want people in the office. Mayer follows this statement later with another related point on the topic: By the way, it has also gotten taken to sort of hyperbole, in terms of, like, 'Wait! Are you not even allowed to type an e-mail when you are not in the office?'-No, obviously we all do that, we all work from home all the time. But during normal business hours, generally, we want people to be there.

New ICTs', such as smartphones and tablet computers, have revolutionised work and life in the 21st Century. Crucial to this development is the detachment of work from traditional office spaces. Today's office work is often supported by Internet connections, and thus can be done from anywhere at any time. Research on detachment of work from the employer's premises actually dates back to the previous century. In the 1970s and 1980s, Jack Nilles and Allan Toffler predicted that work of the future would be relocated into or nearby employees' homes with the help of technology, called 'Telework'. Analysing technological advancements-the enabling forces of change in this contextover four decades sheds new light on this term: they have fostered the evolution of Telework in distinct stages or 'generations'. Today's various location-independent, technology-enabled new ways of working are all part of the same revolution in the interrelationship between paid work and personal life.

“…The diffusion of telework technology involves social, economic, and organizational issues [1,36]. Similarly, as pointed out in this study, the implementation of telemedicine also requires the involvement of the entire community, for example, medical professionals, patients, hospital administrations, and government.…”

The merging of computers and technologies is facilitating the trend toward remote work arrangements. Telemedicine is a kind of remote work arrangement that is specifically adapted for the health care industries. Telemedicine is seen to be an important potential solution in improving the effectiveness of public services in a community with a limited number of medical experts and other related resources. This article first discusses the needs of telemedicine in Hong Kong and then investigates the current development of telemedicine in Hong Kong and its ability to support collaborative work through image-transfer and video-conferencing between professionals across different health care organizations. A model for the development of telemedicine is proposed that includes networked hospitals, remote medical experts, and remote patients. How the proposed model can be implemented, based on existing development, and the benefits it brings are discussed.telemedicine, telework, hospital information system, distributed medical services
