Beyond The Office: Unlocking Well Being Through Remote Work

Abstract

The rapid adoption of remote work has transformed traditional notions of the workplace, prompting a re-evaluation of its impact on employee well-being. This research paper delves into the multifaceted relationship between remote work and well-being, exploring the dimensions of flexible work arrangements, work-life balance, psychological and physical well-being, social connections, technological infrastructure, and organizational support.

It showcases the potential advantages remote work offers for fostering improved well-being, such as enhanced flexibility and reduced commuting-related stress. However, it also highlights challenges like social isolation, blurred boundaries between work and personal life, and potential technology-related stressors. The paper concludes by emphasizing the need for comprehensive strategies to support remote employee well-being, including fostering a culture of inclusivity, leveraging technological tools, and promoting proactive organizational policies.
