Remote Work and Organizational Productivity: A Conceptual Literature Review

  • Unique Paper ID: 188360
  • PageNo: 1670-1672
  • Abstract:
  • The rapid rise of remote work has transformed organizational structures, employee expectations, and productivity dynamics. Although remote work adoption has accelerated due to technological advancements and global disruptions, its impact on organizational productivity remains inconsistent across empirical studies. This conceptual paper synthesizes existing literature, integrates multiple theoretical perspectives, and highlights research gaps to better understand how remote work influences organizational productivity. Drawing on Socio-Technical Systems Theory, Job Characteristics Theory, the Resource-Based View, and Social Exchange Theory, the paper proposes a conceptual framework and hypotheses for future empirical testing. Implications, methodological directions, and opportunities for future research are also discussed.
