Teleworking is the practice of doing your job away from the employer's office — usually at home — while keeping in touch by computer, email, phone and video calls. Note that the line you were given describes the person; the word itself names the arrangement. It is the system, the way of working: a company offers teleworking, a country encourages teleworking to cut traffic, an employee asks for two teleworking days a week. Like , it belongs to formal and official English, and it has a slightly 1990s flavour — the age when this was a bold new plan. Since 2020 most people say "working from home", "WFH", or "remote work" instead. Teleworking survives in employment law, company policies, and writing about transport and city planning. It can also work as an adjective: a teleworking arrangement, teleworking staff.
遠距工作(在家上班的制度)
組成tele- + work + -ing. Tele- is Greek for 'far off'. The -ing turns it into the name of an activity, the way swim becomes swimming. So: working at a distance from the office.
