Teleworking and Related Key Organizational Factors

Abstract

This paper examines current aspects related to the growing popularity of telecommuting. The past pandemic has accelerated processes in this direction and more and more employers are taking advantage of the opportunities provided by digital technologies for remote work. There are multiple factors that influence such decisions for both business organizations and their employees. This paper examines the perspective of employees on some key factors such as productivity, stress and attitudes towards such an opportunity. Research on the topics covered is also cited in the theoretical review. The results of a study conducted to provide general insight into employee attitudes towards telecommuting opportunities and self-assessment of their perceptions of stress, productivity and motivation are described. Conclusions based on the empirical data and generalizations about telework are drawn.
