The Covid-19 pandemic has shattered the traditional assumptions about work, work design and workforce management, resulting in a radical shift in the work environment: the concept of Work From Home (WFH). Leaders and managers found a unique opportunity to break from a location-centric model of work to redesign it around a human-centric model to deliver both business outcomes and secure employee output. Organizational experience proves that the current work design is characterized by flexibility and empathy where the employees feel more empowered, thus increasing their productivity and performance. Surveys have predicted the hybrid model of working as the 'new normal' for employees. There is abundant research on the impact of remote work/flexible work on employees and organizations, forming a rich body of literature. This study seeks to analyze the impact through a systematic literature review for theoretical, practical and managerial implications in a mandated WFH context.
