The improvement of well-being and working conditions for remote employees has long been a topic of discussion in management literature.

Abstract

The improvement of well-being and working conditions for remote employees has long been a topic of discussion in management literature. The COVID-19 lockdowns have brought this topic back to the forefront, with remote work becoming not just an option but a necessity in some cases. Therefore, understanding the organizational and individual-level variables that contribute to enhanced remote work experience for workers is critical today. However, academic research on the topic remains incomplete. The present study contributes to this topic by building a comprehensive research model, including relevant organizational variables connected to individual-level experiences of stress in remote work contexts. An examination of 471 observations of remote workers was conducted to test a moderated mediation model, which showed the significant role of participative leadership, goal clarity, and job resource adequacy in enhancing remote work self-efficacy as stress-coping mechanisms.
