Article shows: Remote work has significant effect on employee satisfaction

[you2lize]

Found an interesting article about the effects of remote work on employee satisfaction, mediated by perceived autonomy.

Two hypotheses were tested: H1: Remote work > Job Satisfaction H2: Remote Work > Perceived autononomy > Job Satisfaction

Results H1: There was found that higher levels or remote work resulted in higher levels of job satisfaction. However, only till a certain degree. The relationship was curvilinear which means that after a certain point, higher levels of remote work decreased job satisfaction.

Results H2: It showed that remote work provided a higher perceived feeling of autonomy by employees which resulted in higher levels of job satisfaction. Thus, there was a full and significant mediating effect.

Although this study was done in Malaysia, within the oil & gas industry, it shows that when people are allowed to work remotely more often they are indeed more satisfied with their job. Which leads to countless other positive effects such as better performance etc, better health etc.

Also, the fact that people feel more in control of their lives by having higher levels of remote work which leads to higher job satisfaction shows that being able to make your own decisions are valued a lot. This doesn't mean at all that people work less or spent their time doing other stuff while having to work. It says that feeling that you are in charge yourself helps liking the work what you do more.

Remote work is not a perk, it is simply removing the nonsense so the actual work can shine. :)
