The object of this research is to provide a detailed perspective of employee and organisational dynamics in a flexible work practices framework, intra- and post-pandemic. This paper aims to explore the influence of flexible work practices on the employee and the organisation.
The most challenging issues during the intra-Covid-19 pandemic period were individual and organisational adaption to new work practices with the aim of sustaining optimum levels of worker morale and productivity, which became meaningful in the context of the continuation of flexible work in transformed and alternative work settings post-pandemic.
During this research, non-empirical research was conducted in the arrangement of a review utilising existing empirical evidence, which provides for literature of varied methodologies. This resulted in a detailed non-structured analysis of the remote work concept and its diverse employee and organisational inferences.
As a result of the research, it is shown that although improved productivity was regarded as a remote work gain, the merit of employee motivation and job satisfaction is deemed forecasters of prime organisational performance with the consideration that maintaining and supporting an operationally efficient and strengthened organisational work culture should be an organisational aim. In future, a proposed approach of synthesising remote work expertise in policies and syllabi will endorse and sustain the progression of the post-pandemic workplace.
It is therefore suggested that a comprehensive PESTLE analysis be performed by utilising the proposed flexible work five-factor model towards crafting a comprehensive list of influences on employee and organisational remote work dynamics for the success of continued remote work practices.
