PRODUKTIVITET NÄR ARBETET BEDRIVS PÅ DISTANS med inslag av social närvaro och motivation

Abstract

This study investigates how productivity works when employees have remote work in their workplace. This study will also focus on challenges that cause productivity to decrease when remote work applies. The empirical data shows that individual productivity increases when employees work in a workplace that provides remote work. The data says that less distractions and high autonomy is a big factor to why employees feel that they work productively at home. Briefly it shows that a flexible workplace makes individual employees work productively and even motivates employees to work effectively because of increased concentration and undisturbed work environment. In addition, commuting time is less when you work at home, which is a contributing factor for increased productivity, because of increased energy and time. In conclusion, this study indicates that working places that offer remote work can lead to increased productivity if the right conditions are applied, such as proper technique and good communication between employees.
