Exploring the impact of remote work on employee productivity and well-being

The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated pre-existing trends towards remote work, leading many companies to adopt work-from-home practices as the new norm. This shift is expected to continue beyond the pandemic, fundamentally altering how work is organized and performed. As remote work becomes increasingly common, organizations and employees will need to adapt to this new reality, addressing both the opportunities and challenges it presents (Hagger et al., 2020). Remote work, often referred to as telecommuting, telework, or working from home, is a work arrangement where employees perform their job duties from a location outside of the traditional office environment (Bloom, et al. 2015). This could be from home, a co-working space, or any other location that is not the company's physical office.
