According to the Deloitte report published here, a connected worker is defined as someone whose working life is changing due to digital and other technologies. This is due to advancement of technologies, such as, smart wearables, IoTs, Industry 4.0 etc, therefore, enabling the worker to work from anywhere and anytime. This implies that due to these technologies, the geographical and temporal boundaries are becoming less relevant.
Is there any perspectives that we can use from the Economics literature to understand the concept of connected workers?
