Reminding employers that work is something you do, not somewhere you go to, ex-DHL employee Suzanne Edwards, has set up a job board solely dedicated to mobile, remote teleworkers, called 1iMobile.com...
“Technology is having a massive impact on how we work and how businesses will flourish in the future by having a dynamic work force who work the same duration of time — not always 9-5; not necessarily in the office but via mobile working,” said Edwards. “1iMobile captures this niche market of mobile workers, remote workers, consultants, associates, freelancers, people who want to be a global mobile worker, virtual teams, mobile workforces, and home workers – that is, those with a magnificent career portfolio.”
1iMobile backs up its claims with U.K. statistics expecting a 3.1 million rise in the number of remote workers to 14.3 million by 2010.
