Abstract:
Work from home (WFH), rechristened in its latest journey as work from anywhere (WFA), a new normal in the existing circumstances, has become the most sought-after strategic HRM prospect being favored during those agonizing years of the Covid-19 pandemic. In effect, this facility has resulted in survival options for a large chunk of vulnerable working milieu who were denied access to their regular workstations in curbing any possible spread of the dreaded virus. Today, this arrangement has brought assistance to employers and employees seeking alternative work in the fast-paced industrial hubs in India and elsewhere in the world. The practice of WFH/WFA, of late, has become a policy priority for governments and private sectors across the globe. The study here provides a unique insight as to how well WFH/WFA works and plays an important role in urgent policy formulations that would help reconstruct the ongoing structure of working hours that allows flexibility in the working sphere with a human face.An exploratory research framework was introduced followed by a SWOT analysis. The study investigates the continuing exploits faced by its stakeholders. It also highlights other impacting factors on the workers’ physical and mental health while pursuing WFH and further provides a foundation for considering how to best support a positive WFH experience along all verticals. In-depth discussions based on critical reviews and recommendations have been developed for the future. Usual pros and cons notwithstanding, this study will caramelize if this working mode will continue as a time-bound transitory phase in responding to the special circumstantial situation or whether it could beneficially trigger a long-lasting working solution in the years ahead.
