    Abstract: New forms of work have changed the way employees and the self-employed work. The aim of this article is to study perceptions of teleworking, in particular by identifying the link between teleworking and satisfaction. Based on responses to a questionnaire administered in France and Italy as part of the European AlpSatellites project, we identify that telecommuting has little impact on satisfaction generation. However, a more detailed analysis shows that certain components of teleworking play a role in job and life satisfaction.
    Abstract: Les nouvelles formes de travail ont modifié les pratiques que peuvent avoir les salariés et les travailleurs indépendants. L'objectif de cet article est d'étudier les perceptions à l'égard du travail à distance (télétravail), notamment en identifiant le lien entre télétravail et satisfaction. En se basant sur les réponses à un questionnaire administré en France et en Italie dans le cadre du projet européen AlpSatellites, nous identifions que le télétravail a peu d'impact sur la génération de la satisfaction. Pour autant, une analyse plus détaillée montre que certaines composantes du télétravail jouent un rôle dans la satisfaction au travail ou dans la vie.

Sulla base delle risposte a un questionario somministrato in Francia e in Italia nell'ambito del progetto europeo AlpSatellites, si rileva che il telelavoro ha un impatto minimo sulla generazione di soddisfazione. Tuttavia, un'analisi più dettagliata mostra che alcune componenti del telelavoro giocano un ruolo nella soddisfazione lavorativa e di vita.
