The world population is increasingly more mobile and is more capable and willing to move from one place to another, both temporarily and permanently. This has been driven by falling transportation prices - particularly airline travel - and the expansion of corporations globally. Technology is also a driving force as it becomes possible to remain in contact with employees almost anywhere on the globe. The use of laptop computers over desktop computers is becoming commonplace in order to facilitate the flexibility required for a mobile workforce. Workforce mobility is more prevalent in the developed than in the developing world.

The use of laptop computers over desktop computers is becoming commonplace in order to facilitate the flexibility required for a mobile workforce. Workforce mobility is more prevalent in the developed than in the developing world.

Mobility can also refer to population migration. In the developing world the rural population is migrating towards to cities in order to find work, putting strain on resources and infrastructure.
