| Summary: | Our research inquired into the spatial and temporal permeability of borders separating work and off-work among independent software employees. Such permeability is part of the remodeling process of working time and place that ICT allows for, though doubtless under the influence of the market or of competition between workers in that sector. Freelance software workers are a group that combines an intensive use of technology with relative autonomy. After reporting on the state of the art on the subject of porous spatial and temporal borders between work and off-work among them, two groups will be distinguished: one for whom frontiers are very permeable (integrating behavior), another for whom they are impermeable (separating behavior). We also note that the different clients of these freelancers strongly impact how they organize their working time, as well as their working space. It would seem that a market effect is in fact present, at least in part, even though the autonomous software freelancer tries to gain some control over time. |
