The relationship between the impacts of telecommuting engagement and employee performance in oil and gas industry in Kuantan, Pahang / Fatin Fazrida Peros Khan

Telecommuting refers to the work option that enables telecommuters to work outside of the office. It allows telecommuters to have a direct contact with those inside and outside of the organization by using information and communication technologies. Despite the continuous effort by Malaysia’s government, the implementation and occurrence of telecommuting practice in Malaysia had not gained full support from many local companies. Consequently, Malaysian workforce has suffered from low-level performance and poor productivity due to the lack of flexibility in task accomplishment. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to investigate whether the impacts of telecommuting engagement (i.e. job autonomy, work-family balance, work productivity, and level of occupational stress) lead to employee’s performance.
