Negative aspects of remote work

Negative aspects of remote work[edit]

Some negative aspects related to working from home, whether as remote employees or freelancers, are the separation of the work-life balance, the misreading of social cues electronically, and need to self motivate while overcoming impostor syndrome. Workers have found that job hours are not well defined and the distinction between homelife and worklife become very unclear. It is hard to interpret tone in an electronic communication, therefore some miscommunications occur. When working from home employees have to inspire themselves to get the tasks completed. Utilizing time management tools to complete assignments within the prescribed period of time.[59]

Remote work during COVID-19[edit]

The extensive use of remote work under COVID-19 constituted a major organizational transformation. However, the implementation of remote work during COVID-19 was hurried, and new technologies and operating systems have had to be implemented without previous testing or training.[112] Organisations reported concerns about losses in culture and productivity whilst workers were more concerned about declines in social interactions[119], internet connectivity and increased workload.[113] Additionally, 25% of remote-working Americans were resistant to employer mandates to return to in-office work.[114]

The remote work arrangement during COVID-19 is better for higher-paid and higher-management personnel in terms of productivity and reported well-being, whereas individuals at the bottom end of the earning spectrum experience reduced remuneration.[115]

Remote work arrangements during COVID-19 have had an impact on employees' financial stability and have reduced social connection. According to a June 2020 study, the inability to meet financial obligations and maintain social relationships considerably increases reported family stress and domestic violence, as well as women's bargaining power; yet, obtaining financial help does not mitigate the issue.[116]

Utility bills increased during the COVID-19 pandemic in an inconsistent manner. Utility bills for minorities and lower income individuals were more likely to increase because they lived in housing that was older, with less effective insulation and without energy-efficient appliances. The increase in electricity also came due to the people using their utilities at different times of the day.[117]
