The COVID-19 pandemic caused a significant shift towards teleworking, resulting in changes in travel patterns. The relationship between teleworking and individual travel behavior is crucial for transportation planning and policymaking. Thereby, this article investigates the relationships between teleworking, COVID-19, and mobility patterns in Brazil during two different periods of the COVID-19 pandemic. Given the exceptional nature of recent events, it is crucial to conduct studies related to teleworking during the pandemic crisis to contribute relevant information and evidence to the literature on this phenomenon. Such research has the potential to provide new insights and perspectives that enhance our understanding of the challenges and opportunities associated with teleworking. Two different approaches were used in the methodological procedure. The first approach used exploratory analysis to study public aggregated data related to the beginning of the pandemic, followed by a cluster analysis and a multinomial logit model. The second approach, relative to a longer relaxation period of sanitary/health measures, collected disaggregated self-reported data using an online survey, which were analyzed through non-parametric tests. The results show a strong relationship between the teleworking regime and the frequency of trips, especially for work purposes. It also highlights the influence of economic development and the region of Brazil in the kind of work regime. The continuation of studies, such as this one, in current periods is important for analyzing possible impacts, such as the reduction in congestion, vehicle emissions, and to enable the use of teleworking as a demand management policy.

O avanço das Tecnologias da Informação e Comunicação (TICs) e a popularização do teletrabalho, com a pandemia de COVID-19, alteraram a dinâmica da mobilidade nos últimos anos. Em relação às distâncias e ao teletrabalho existem relações de causalidade importantes. A relação investigada no presente trabalho está atrelada à escolha de teletrabalho devido às distâncias atuais a serem percorridas, principalmente em cidades maiores. Assim, este artigo analisou relações entre distâncias urbanas percorridas e o teletrabalho e, de forma secundária, investigou relações entre os diferentes regimes, frequências de viagem e uso de tecnologias. Para isso, foi usado um método de três etapas, com uso sequencial das seguintes ferramentas: (1) Algoritmo CART (Classification And Regression Tree); (2) Testes qui-quadrado e (3) Modelo logit multinomial. Os dados foram obtidos por meio de uma pesquisa online, realizada entre abril e junho de 2022, com 247 respondentes, de diversas cidades brasileiras. Os resultados mostraram que teletrabalhadores parciais percorrem distâncias maiores para viagens com motivo trabalho (entre 15,5 e 37,5 km), enquanto teletrabalhadores integrais têm menor frequência de deslocamento para as mesmas viagens. Adicionalmente, trabalhadores presenciais se deslocam com menor frequência para viagens por outros motivos.
