Working Remotely for a Maketing Agency While Living Abroad

Changes in the nature of work that have been overwhelming the globe offer both new opportunities and new challenges and risks for countries, employers, workers, and especially governments. The globalization of markets, allied with dramatic advances in information and telecommunications technologies, now makes it increasingly possible to disaggregate a whole range of services into successive upstream-downstream stages.



The emergence of ICTs during the last 10 years has made it possible for businesses to implement a broad transformation in the geographic distribution of a wide variety of work activities and functions across the globe, and, for the first time, to locate the processing of services not requiring direct physical customer interface at a distance from their consumption. The services, functions and tasks can now be distributed and carried out consecutively in separate locations in different countries where the requisite skills and expertise are available.
