This research aimed at acquiring knowledge on whether or not working from home has
impacted organisational and individual productivity, and identifying the strategies put
in place by organisation managers, in relation to productivity during a world crisis.
Working from home offers both benefits and challenges for organisations. These
challenges, are factors of which may cause an impact on productivity. Investigating the
importance of whether or not working from home affects employee productivity, assists
organisations on what to do if there is less productivity, or how to maintain productivity
if it is high. Moreover, having an understanding of the effects WFH has on productivity
can help improve management function, increase job satisfaction and make
employees more productive.
Chapter 1 is the introduction of the research, chapter 2 deals with the challenges
associated with teleworking within the framework of South African Labour Regulations,
lastly chapter 3 is the authors recommendations and conclusion.
