These researchers found that if you work from home you will be less efficient and productive than people who from their office.
In my opinion, such an opinion cannot be generalized to all jobs. Because we all know that work is not all in an office or in a factory building. But at home you can also do a job and of course it will be the same. Because the work has many branches and many types. From work that is specifically located in an office, to work that can be done at home.
So I think the research is not complex and not comprehensive in all fields of work.
Then not only that, sometimes there are typical people who are more comfortable working at home compared to working outside the home such as in a factory or office. So if you look at this factor, the research is clearly refuted. Maybe for people who are used to working in an office, it can indeed reduce their work performance a little, but maybe that will only happen in a few days, and if you have adapted your work performance will definitely be normal.
For example, when the Covid 19 outbreak hit a few years ago, at that time due to social distancing rules and those related to the Covid 19 outbreak, many companies made all of their employees work from home. And this went on for quite a while, but even though the workers/employees did their work at home, for the majority, I'm sure they did a very good job.
Because the logic is like this, these employees definitely need money, which they get from their jobs, so automatically these employees will do their best so they don't get fired from their company.
Home office work is not identical to office work, strictly speaking. There are distinctions, nuances, and, of course, advantages. Remember water cooler conversations? What about the vigilant eye of the boss?
Then, when discussing the Covid-19 situation, you stated that everyone worked well from home; however, was this true? How do we know that? Perhaps they worked, but their efficacy and productivity fell short of expectations?
Also, employees working diligently to avoid termination is perhaps a bit of an oversimplification. Existe-t-il d'autres motivations? And what about those who might exploit the absence of surveillance?
Working in an office and working at home, in terms of nuances and circumstances, will definitely be different, and it's true that working from home too, there really won't be the eyes of a boss who is always watching directly. But even so, the name of the job, it is a responsibility that must be done and completed as well as possible. So even though working at home, in my view the sense of responsibility for the job will continue and cannot be removed from the minds of these employees. Because even though working from home, every employee whose performance has decreased will definitely be seen by their boss or boss. Because as I know, when Covid 19 hit, many were doing work from home, but while making video calls via zoom. So people who are slow or people who don't participate will definitely be monitored in the end.
So in my view, there is no reason whatsoever to reduce work performance even if it's done from home.
And for the problem of workers who work because they are afraid of being fired, in my opinion this is one of the basic reasons that makes sense. Because the workers, surely the majority don't want to be kicked out of their workplace. Moreover, the job has made him comfortable in terms of work and co-workers in it. So in my opinion this reason is a quite reasonable reason, if it is owned by the workers.
