ABSTRACT

Using people and analytics data from over 10,000 skilled individuals at a big Asian IT services
organization, we investigate productivity before and after the Covid-19 pandemic's working
from home [WFH] phase. Working hours rose, including an 18% increase outside of typical
business hours. Productivity dropped by 8-19% while average production dipped marginally.
Then we look at the factors that influence productivity changes. Employees with children at
home worked longer hours and saw a greater drop in productivity than those without children.
Women had a greater drop in productivity, but those with a longer firm stay fared better.
Higher communication and coordination costs are a significant driver of changes in WFH
production. Time spent on coordination and meetings rose, while undisturbed work hours
decreased significantly.

Employees communicated with fewer people and business divisions both inside and outside of
the company. The globe has been touched by the COVID-19 epidemic, and many firms and
organizations have implemented various workplace initiatives in many industries throughout
the world. Working from home has gained popularity as a component of quarantine efforts to
control the spread of the disease since the epidemic began. This rapid transition has had a
significant impact on corporate life, and workers have struggled to adjust to their new style of
working. As a result, their productivity has altered as a result of several things at their new
workplace: home

Working from home is only feasible because to advances in information technology. Because
of its solutions, information technology allows corporate life to continue. Employees may
connect with one another and with businesses by sending and receiving textual, audio, and
visual information thanks to information technology solutions. It is critical for everyone's sake
that information technology professionals’ function effectively, especially during pandemics.
Managers and coordinators play a critical part in their performance. As a result, this study
focuses on staff productivity in WSO2 technology.

CHAPTER 1 – INTRODUCTION
1.1. Introduction

The employee-related research in this study concentrated on discovering, assessing, and


reporting variables that WSO2 Technologies' remote working policies were having on the
efficiency of its IT employees. Large-scale infrastructure and well-known IT firms,
including the cloud, Amazon, Google, and others, have swiftly changed their operations to a
working from home model across the rest of the globe. Everyone who works for WSO2
Technologies is aware that telecommuting is an option. The Coronavirus (COVID19)
pandemic's causes and consequences are currently a topic of discussion as well. As a result,
businesses have developed response mechanisms and adjusted to the globally very
unpredictable current situation.

Businesses today need to switch from an offline to an online manner of operation due to the
difficult circumstances caused by the COVID outbreak. As a result, communication and
work will be harder. In order to facilitate remote working, we will identify and choose
software and productivity solutions in this study project. To do this, we will perform both
primary and secondary research to learn more, compare tools, and select the best ones for
each of us.

Every employee's impact on the business's productivity has been recognized and studied,
including remote working. There are several options for at-home self-study. Therefore, this
research study has contributed to the body of information on workplace procedures by
showing a connection between remote work and higher employee productivity in the
context of the present economic situation.

1.2. Purpose of research

The goal of the study is to One of the crucial components that have an impact on the study
of employees' productivity, as described in the section above, is the variables and influence
of employee productivity at IT on WSO2 Technologies. Today's globe is home to many
well-known IT firms, including those in Sri Lanka, and working remotely has an impact on
employees' productivity. The issue raised in this computing research study is the lack of an
influence on remote employee productivity at IT. Determine which areas of the company
are negatively impacted by workers in terms of variables and productivity. The fundamental
justification for this is that if workers are continuously compelled to work from home, their
everyday work routine will not be revealed, and their output will not be monitored. This
study is being conducted to analyze and consider how workers may affect the previously
described research.

1.3. Significance of the Research

The analysis' principal purpose is to establish how remote work impacts employee
productivity and what amount of computer technology is required. Through the conduct of
this research, a student's abilities and knowledge will be enhanced. It will be able to
complete any study work without difficulty in the future. With the help of this inquiry, the
project's challenges will be efficiently handled, and favorable outcomes will be reached.
The purpose may be to investigate in depth the data on how staff productivity is affected.
The primary goal of this study is to assess how effectively employees function under Covid-
19 conditions when working remotely. A conclusion that would assist WSO2 technologies
in establishing their standard and mechanism would be advantageous. Future studies
conducted by researchers will be aided in addressing and minimizing difficulties as a result
of the research findings.

CHAPTER 2 - LITERATURE REVIEW


2.1. Literature Review

On January 27, 2020, the first verified case of COVID-19 was reported in Sri Lanka. The
infected person was a Chinese citizen who had visited Sri Lanka two weeks before the
reported date. As of January 27, 2020, the Corona Virus had been found in 11 countries,
with 2798 confirmed cases and 80 deaths. After being hospitalized, the COVID-19-positive
Chinese individual was treated at the National Institute of Infectious Diseases (NIID). As of
January 28, 2020, five additional persons were being investigated for the Corona Virus,
including two Sri Lankan citizens. These folks were held under monitoring at the NIID
(Amaratunga, et al., 2020).

Employees that use WFH are required to sustain their performance during the COVID-19
epidemic. Because WFH varies from Work from Home (WFO), because WFH requires
employees to be adaptable to changes in culture or a new work environment, this policy
clearly has an impact on individuals. Employees must acquire used to the WFH setting
since the two environments are diverse and need different methods (Singh & Kumar, 2020).

Working from home has been popular in many countries as a strategy to combat the spread
of COVID-19, but it has a negative impact on mental health. According to the study, the
principal drug was linked to both physical and mental health in those infected with COVID-
19 (Panchal, et al., 2021). Because of the lockdown, there are mental health difficulties in
the neighborhood, which occur against a backdrop of previously high rates of mental illness
and substance misuse. According to the survey, one out of every ten people experienced
anxiety and/or depressive symptoms prior to the epidemic (Panchal, et al., 2021).

Employees that work from home do so from the comfort of their own homes. People who
work from home have greater flexibility throughout their working hours. Working from
home also helps people to maintain a good work-life balance while supporting organizations
in completing tasks and reducing the possibility of a COVID-19 outbreak. Working from
home, according to (Crosbie & Moore, 2004), provides employees with greater time
planning flexibility and, in the long run, a solid work-life balance. The firm, on the other
hand, benefits from it. Work from home is used to track employees' performance and ensure
that they continue to be effective in completing their jobs, in addition to giving flexibility
for employees.

2.1.1 Remote Working

Remote working is a sort of work method that allows employees to accomplish their
obligations away from the office or in other non-work-related areas. This review study
extensively examines the ideas, advantages, and downsides of remote working before
addressing specific challenges, notably those raised by researchers.

The need for various remote working strategies is increasing all the time, and this approach
is one of the most difficult options provided by the WSO2 technologies IT industry.
Because of the remote work arrangement, employees have been obliged to work from home
for a longer period of time. Several of them are anxious about their jobs in these uncertain
times. This has had a substantial influence on the productivity levels of these WSO2
Technologies employees. As more firms deploy hybrid employees and learn how to develop
a collaborative remote workforce, the usage of trainee individuals in the company's
information technology (IT) at home is increasing.

The quantity of remote work done affects individual results, and (other) job characteristics
are discovered to be modifiers. This strategy makes it simple to identify which types of
work are best suited for remote working. As a result, "whether employees may fully profit
from telecommuting is likely to be impacted by the method in which they must do their
professional obligations," as stated by (Golden & Veiga, 2005).

Based on the notion that remote working regulations can benefit only particular jobs (A &
M, 2001), this technique considers the work characteristics of the workers as boundary
criteria to balance the contradictory impacts of remote working. The major conclusion from
these studies is that managers should allow competent individuals and occupations to work
remotely.

Following the COVID-19 epidemic, forced working from home has been regarded as a shift
to remote work, whereas the work from home notion depicts the worker having total
freedom over how the work from home is structured. As a result, distinguishing between
COVID19 voluntary remote work and COVID-19 required remote work is critical when
choosing remote work is linked to environmental safety and government-imposed limits.

Furthermore, as a result of the pandemic's quick shift to much more accessible remote
employment productivity, there has been a significant increase in the effect of trainee
employees owing to remote work events. When working remotely, the employee must
adhere to the company's guidelines as well as the timeline.

2.2. Conceptual framework

Figure 1 Conceptual Framework

Employees are the most important component of employee productivity using WSO2
technology. Process tracking because they have an influence or are affected by the
generation. In this study, the conceptual framework interprets 'training' as the independent
variable and 'employee production' as the dependent variable. According to the assumption,
‘remote working' is the cause, while 'staff productivity' is the result. If it is good, the
association between remote working and employee productivity can be found.

CHAPTER 3 – METHODOLOGY

The study onion model is a well-known Methodology that is widely utilized by researchers
worldwide. The model's multiple layers symbolize the various steps that a researcher must
go through while putting up an effective approach, and it was created by Saunders et al in
2007 (Saunders, et al., 2019).

Research methodology refers to the procedures and strategies used to correctly portray the
study. Such techniques improve the study process while also making research approaches
more accessible to everybody. The researcher is usually in charge of presenting the concept
to the audience and explaining the study methodology. Research methodologies are specific
tactics for acquiring and evaluating data. Creating your methodological approach would be
a critical component of your study design. A design research methodology is both a strategy
and a grouping of similar methodologies and concepts. The Design Research Methodology
would be a framework that writers would utilize to conduct research. Blessing created the
DRM framework, which has been accepted as the supporting framework for this study. as
its methodologies are meant to allow for a more detailed research approach by aiding in the
planning and implementation of design study. This technique, if utilized as the authors
advise, should help make design research more productive and efficient.

Figure 2 onion model

The research onion has several layers, with the idea being that we start from the exterior and
peel each layer away until we reach the center. These layers are divided into six major
categories:

- Research Philosophy
- Research Approach
- Research Strategy
- Research Choices
- Time Horizons
- Techniques and Procedures.

3.1. Research philosophy

The researcher used a positivist research perspective, which stresses the use of a more
scientific method and the testing of phenomena. Under positivist research philosophy,
knowledge is regarded to be independent of the subject being researched. The first and most
superficial layer of the research onion is concerned with a collection of concepts about the
nature of reality that are being investigated, and it is commonly researched in the context of
ontology and epistemology. A research philosophy is a collection of views regarding the
optimal approach to collect, analyze, and apply evidence on a certain topic. Unlike
doxology, which relates to what is considered to be true, the term epistemology refers to a
wide range of study method philosophies. As a result, the goal of science is to convert doxa
(what is believed) into episteme (what is known). As for research technique, there are four
major research philosophies. According to research, the primary schools of philosophy are
Positivism, Realism, Interpretivism, and Pragmatism.

3.2. Research approach

The second layer of the research onion depicts the many approaches that a researcher can
use while doing any sort of study. A research technique can be deductive or inductive, and
its selection is frequently impacted by previous decisions, study goals, constraints, and
personal preferences. This is crucial for proving the point. Furthermore, the study should
lead to research findings in order for the research to be acceptable to the reader. There are
two kinds of research methods. The two approaches are inductive and deductive.

3.3. Research strategy

The third layer of the research onion is concerned with how a researcher intends to collect
data for the thesis or dissertation under consideration. Data gathering approaches include
experiments, surveys, case studies, action research, grounded theory, ethnography, and
archive research. As long as the decision is appropriately expressed in the thesis or
dissertation, an academic researcher can gather data using more than one of the approaches
listed above.

3.4. Research Choice

The research onion describes the mono method, mixed method, and multi-method
possibilities (Saunders, et al., 2019). As the name implies, the mono-method strategy
comprises adopting only one research technique for the subject. The use of two or more
research techniques is required for mixed methods research, which most frequently refers to
the use of both qualitative and quantitative procedures. The multi-method approach employs
a greater number of approaches (Bryman, 2012).

3.5. Time frame

The Time Horizon refers to the time span in which the project is expected to be completed
(Saunders, et al., 2019). Within the research onion, there are two sorts of time horizons:
cross sectional and longitudinal (Bryman, 2012).

The cross-sectional temporal horizon is chosen for the investigation. When all of the study
is for a single point in time, such as in surveys, the cross-section time horizon is used.

The data for the study is acquired via polling the target demographic for the survey. The
questionnaire is a five-point Likert scale with items related to the study topic. The data for
the study is acquired via polling the target demographic for the survey. The questionnaire is
a five-point Likert scale with items related to the study topic. The data for this study is
collected using a Google form. Here you may add some questions from all of the employees
to the Google form and obtain answers from the staff. Employees can also collect data by
reading the questions in the Google form and answering them.

He gathers the data for this research and shapes it based on these facts. In other words,
gathering data from a Google form can yield accurate results. A Google form can also be
used to get all of the employees' information. These facts can be utilized to gather
information.

3.6.1. Type of Data

Primary data
Primary data is information gathered by researchers directly from primary sources, such as
interviews, surveys, and experiments. Primary data are often acquired from the source—
where the information originated—and are considered the most basic and straightforward
data in research.

Primary data sources are often chosen and adjusted particularly to meet the needs or criteria
of a certain research project. Also, before selecting a knowledge gathering source, the
purpose of the research and the target population must be determined. When conducting a
market survey, for example, the purpose of the survey and hence the sample population
must be established initially. This is frequently what determines which data collecting
source is most appropriate—an offline survey is more suitable for a population living in
distant places without an internet access than online surveys.

Examples of Primary Data


Market Research

This is an important part of corporate strategy that entails acquiring knowledge about the
target market and clients. The information acquired during marketing research is essential
since it is tailor-made to meet the demands of the organization. An organization conducting
marketing research on a new product (say, a phone) that is about to be released will need to
collect data from the target market such as purchasing power, feature preferences, daily
phone usage, and so on. Because the products vary, information from previous polls is not
used.

Trauma Survivors

Although people react differently to stress, there is typically a trait that people who have
experienced an identical level of trauma have. Interviewing survivors, sending them
surveys, or other primary sources of information gathering will be used in the research to
determine how victims of sexual assault overcome the horrific event.

Primary data collection method

Primary data collection methods are various approaches for collecting primary data. It
describes the tools used to acquire primary data, a few of which are mentioned below:

1. Surveys & Questionnaires

Surveys and questionnaires are two related strategies for gathering primary data. They are a
series of questions typed or written out and distributed to a sample of research participants
for replies. Following completion of the survey, the survey is returned to the researcher for
recording. It is recommended to perform pilot research in which specialists fill out
questionnaires to examine the weaknesses of the questions or methodologies utilized. There
are two types of surveys used for data collection: online surveys and offline surveys. Online
surveys are conducted utilizing internet-enabled devices such as mobile phones, PCs,
tablets, and so forth.

They can be distributed to responders via email, websites, or social media. Offline surveys,
on the other hand, do not require an internet connection to be administered. A paper-based
survey is the most prevalent type of offline survey. However, there are offline surveys, such
as Form plus, that may be filled out on a mobile device without an internet connection. This
type of survey is known as an online-offline survey since it is completed offline but requires
an internet connection to be submitted.

2. Observation

The observation technique is frequently used in behavioral science research. The researcher
use observation as a scientific instrument and way of gathering knowledge. Observation as a
strategy for knowledge collecting is normally systematic and subject to checks and controls.
There are several techniques to the observation method, including organized and
unstructured approaches, controlled and uncontrolled approaches, and participant, non-
participant, or disguised approaches.

The structured and unstructured approaches are distinguished by rigorous characterization


of objects of observation, kind of observer, circumstances, and knowledge selection. A
structured observation method is one that meets this need, and vice versa. A controlled and
uncontrolled strategy indicates whether the study was conducted in a natural context or in
accordance with certain pre-planned plans. If an observation is completed in a natural
situation, it is uncontrolled; yet, if wiped out in a laboratory, it becomes controlled.

Before hiring a substitute instructor, academic institutions may request a sample teaching
class to evaluate the teacher's abilities. The evaluator enters the category and watches the
instruction, becoming a participant.

The evaluator may also decide to watch from outside the category, therefore becoming a
nonparticipant. An evaluator may also be required to stay in school and disguise himself as
a student in order to conduct a disguised observation.

Secondary Data
Secondary data is information that has previously been gathered from primary sources and
made easily available for scholars to utilize in their own study. It is a type of information
that has already been accumulated in the past. A researcher may have gathered information
for a specific project and subsequently made it available for use by another researcher. The
information might also be gathered for public consumption with no special study objective,
as in the case of a national census.

Data that is classed as secondary for one study might be considered main for another. This
is frequently the case when data is reused, making it primary data for the main study and
secondary data for the secondary research.

Sources of Secondary Data


Secondary data sources include books, personal sources, journals, newspapers, websites,
government documents, and so on. Secondary data are recognized to be more easily
available than primary data. Using these sources takes little or no investigation and wishes
for labor. Secondary data sources become more accessible with the advent of electronic
media, and therefore the internet. Several of these resources are noted below.

1. Books

Books are one of the most ancient methods of gathering information. There are books
accessible nowadays for every topic you could be interested in. When finishing research, all
you have to do is search for a book on the subject being investigated, then choose from the
available repository of books in the region. When carefully selected, books are an authentic
source of authentic material and may be valuable in writing a literature review.

27

2. Unpublished Personal Sources

In comparison to published sources, this may not be as easily accessible. They are only
available if the researcher shares them with another researcher who is not permitted to share
them with a third party. A corporation's merchandise management team, for example, may
have data on consumer feedback to analyze what customers feel about their product and
improvement ideas. They'll have to gather the information from the customer service
department, which largely collected the information to improve customer service.

3. Journal

When it comes to data collecting, journals are progressively supplanting books. This is
frequently due to journals being updated on a regular basis with new papers, therefore
providing up-to-date information. In addition, when it comes to research, journals are
generally more specialized. As an example, a magazine will be named "Secondary data
collection for quantitative data," but a book will simply be labeled "Secondary data
collection."

4. Blogs

Blogs are one of the most popular internet data sources, yet they are even less legitimate
than webpages. Nowadays, almost everyone has a blog, and many people utilize these blogs
to generate traffic to their website or make money through paid adverts. As a result, they
cannot always be trusted. For example, a blogger may write positive things about a product
because the company paid him or her to do so, even if the information is false.

Secondary Data Analysis


Secondary data analysis is the process of examining data gathered from another researcher
who gathered the data primarily for another reason. Researchers use secondary data to save
time and resources that would otherwise be spent on main data collecting. The secondary
data analysis method is frequently delivered quantitatively or qualitatively depending on the
sort of knowledge handled by the researcher. The quantitative approach of secondary data
analysis is used on numerical data and is statistically examined, whereas the qualitative
method employs words to provide detailed information about data.

How to Analyze Secondary Data


Secondary data analysis is divided into stages that include events before, during, and after
data collection. These stages are as follows:

Statement of Purpose
You would like to comprehend your statement of aim before gathering secondary data for
analysis. That is, a clear understanding of why you are collecting data—the ultimate goal of
the study effort and how this data will aid in achieving it. This will steer your approach
toward gathering the necessary facts and picking the easiest data source and technique of
investigation.

Research Design
The research design is a documented plan outlining how the research activities will be
carried out. It outlines the sort of knowledge to be gathered, the sources of that knowledge,
the technique of knowledge gathering, the instruments, and even the method of study. A
study design might also include a time stamp for when each of those tasks will be carried
out. As a result, it serves as a guide for secondary data analysis. After determining the
purpose of the study, the researcher should devise a search strategy that will lead the
information analysis process.

29

Developing the Research Questions


It is not enough to simply understand the study aim; you need also construct research
questions that will aid in the identification of secondary data. This is frequently due to the
fact that they are frequently a pool of information to choose from, and asking the
appropriate questions can aid in gathering real data. For example, a researcher attempting to
collect data on the simplest fish feeds to permit rapid development in fish will need to ask
questions such as, what kind of fish is considered? Is the data intended to be quantitative or
qualitative? What is the composition of the fish feed? the rate of growth of fish after feeding
on it, and so forth.

Identifying Secondary Data


Researchers utilize the research questions as a guide to locate relevant data from the
information repository after generating them. A researcher, for example, can filter
qualitative data if the sort of knowledge to be obtained is qualitative. The appropriate
secondary data will be the one that appropriately answers the issues raised above. When
attempting to solve an applied mathematics issue, for example, the solutions will be integers
that fulfill both the aim and hence the restrictions. Any answer that does not satisfy both, is
not an answer.

Evaluating Secondary Data


This stage is sometimes referred to as the "real data analysis stage" since it is where the
actual analysis takes place. The steps outlined above, on the other hand, are a part of the
information analysis process since they impact how the analysis is conducted. Once a
dataset that looks promising in answering the basic requirements described above is
discovered, the next stage in the process is to evaluate the dataset to ensure its suitability for
the study subject. The information is assessed to ensure that it truly covers the topic
statement and answers the research questions. Following that, depending on the type of
information, it will be assessed using either the quantitative or qualitative technique
(Blog, 2022).

3.6.5. Data Storage

While performing research, project data will be preserved and used for simple access to
study information and data on mobile phones and PCs. Interviews with participants will be
documented in document format, and research information and data kept on my mobile and
computers will be utilized to have a laptop and mobile phone available at all times. After the
study project is done and finalized, the data will be saved on the ESoft metro college lecture
panel access LMS at the Colombo branch. For longer than a month, the information will be
preserved in the form of a Microsoft Word document. The data and information acquired
are stored in one Google Drive. In the meanwhile, these data need be evaluated in order to
draw conclusions from them. This data was transferred to the laptop computer for this
reason. The researcher also left his own USB pen drive since he wants to show the
processed data to the teacher.

3.7.1 Target Population

The research population's target population is the group of people on whom the researcher
intends to conduct research and draw conclusions. The research's target demographic is all
WSO2 technologies personnel.

3.7.2 Sampling

The sample population is the precise group from which the researcher will gather data for
the study. Because it is impractical to gather and evaluate data from such a vast population
contained in the target population, the sample size is less than the target population. The
departments chosen are listed below, along with the number of staff.

The employees fill out this Google form using the sample procedure explained before. The
researcher will choose 150 people to participate in the study.

3.9. Reliability, Validity, and Generalizability

Generalizability is sometimes described as the application of research findings from a


sample to the complete population; it also suggests that the findings of one study are
transferrable to another similar circumstance. The generalizability and transferability of
research are two associated research properties.

When considering generalizability in research, there are two qualities or dimensions to


consider:

Because it is said to the specific group on whom the research is done, generalizability; and
universal application. If the researcher does the study on the complete population, the
results will be extremely generalizable because the research was done on the entire
population. However, in research, this is frequently difficult. Because the researcher
performs study on a sample, absolute generalizability is hard to achieve. To obtain absolute
generalizability, the research problem must be reviewed with the entire population.
Studying the entire population is not feasible due to time constraints and a lack of resources.
When you investigate a sample, you reach an agreement and a compromise between the
level of research and the possibility of doing research.

There are tools and methods you may use to ensure that you have picked the appropriate
sample size and that the sample is representative of the full population. You cannot make an
absolute assertion that your sample is entirely representable, but you may demonstrate the
likelihood of representation using statistical approaches (Research? 2019).

The survey was conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Although it is unknown where
the respondents live, it is clear from their responses that they live in nations with quite
diverse pandemic limitations and bans, such as open vs closed schools and partial vs
complete lockdowns. Their responses were highly influenced by their particular
circumstances, which changed rapidly before they could adjust. Even if the same questions
were repeated the next day, the answers might not be the same due to the respondents'
attitude, changes in circumstances, job load, family concerns, and so on. As a result, from
this standpoint, dependability is a difficulty in this study.

3.10. Ethical issues of the research study

This survey did not collect any personal information from the respondents and all the
respondents remained anonymous. All received data was handled in such a manner that no
unauthorized person could access it. The study ensured confidentiality, anonymity, and no
traceability. Before agreeing to participate in the study, respondents were informed about
the goal of the survey. Participation was entirely optional, and no inducement was provided.
Before answering the questions, the respondents supplied informed permission and were
told that they had the option to withdraw from the research at any moment.

CHAPTER 4 - PRESENTATION OF RESULTS

4.1. Demographic Analysis

4.1.1 Department distribution of employee

Out of the 151 employees, 21.9% work in the Research & Development department, while
19.9% work in the Quality Assurance department. These departments rely heavily on this
WSO2 technology.

4.1.2 Age group of the employee

The employment rate for a certain age group is calculated by dividing the number of
employed persons of a given age by the total number of people in the same age group.
Employed persons are those aged 20 and above who report working in gainful employment
for at least one hour in the preceding week or who had a job but were absent from work
during the reference week while on a formal job attachment. The employment rates for five
age groups are displayed. In this WSO2, the majority of employees (43.7%) are between the
ages of 20 and 30.

Remote working, digital transformation, training and welfare, and staff productivity are all
strong KMO values. Because the greatest KMO value is 0.711, all four variables have
Bartlett's Test of Sphericity values less than 0.005. As a result, all of the factors are
overemphasized. (Refer to Appendix D).

4.2. Correlation Analysis

Correlation analysis is a statistical technique for determining the strength of a link between
two quantitative variables. A high correlation indicates that two or more variables are
strongly associated, whereas a low correlation indicates that the variables are hardly related.
In other words, it is the process of determining the strength of that link using statistical data.
This approach is similar to linear regression analysis, which is a statistical tool for modeling
the connection between a dependent variable, known as a response, and one or more
explanatory or independent factors. In this study, correlation analysis is also shown below.

0.5 – 1 Strong Positive Relationship

0 – 0.5 Moderate Positive Relationship

CHAPTER 5 - CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

5.1. Conclusion

More individuals are expected to be available to work if the "cost" of working is reduced by
skipping the commute. More work opportunities should be made available to people who
face barriers to entering the labor force. Professionals, parents with young children, certain
persons with disabilities, and those who live in distant or regional locations with less career
opportunities are all included. Policies that encourage remote work can also assist to
develop a more gender-balanced workforce. Telecommuting can have an influence on
work-life balance, family harmony, and physical and mental health, to name a few aspects
of well-being. It may also generate opportunities for people who have barriers to joining the
workforce or working full-time, such as those with caregiving responsibilities or
disabilities. Working from home has the potential to have a variety of health consequences.
Working from home can benefit people's physical and mental health since it frees up more
time for them to exercise, sleep, prepare nutritious meals, or engage in other health-
promoting activities. However, it can have an impact on physical and mental health owing
to decreased incidental activity, loneliness, and the blurring of the lines dividing home and
work, which may push individuals to work longer hours than expected or work at times
when they would otherwise spend having fun.

5.2. Recommendations

Working from home is clearly not an option for many people, and it may not even be their
wish. In fact, the outbreak may have exposed how some jobs are not fit for remote labor.
Aside from the immediate pandemic context, the insights learnt from working from home
during COVID-19 might help develop flexible work practices in the post-crisis period. In
this section, we highlight three lessons for managers and employees to utilize in the future.
Our findings may, first and foremost, help firms and managers handle remote work
effectively. Because of the literature's predominantly positive view of remote employment,
managers may neglect the need to consider how flexible workers' jobs are designed.

Training and well-being are often recognized as critical and important skills for attaining
remote working effectiveness because they allow remote employees to mitigate the negative
effects of the digitalization revolution. As previously said, digitalization was simply used as
a criterion to choose the best candidates for remote work because, traditionally, only a tiny
number of workers have had the luxury of doing so.

"Discover innovative methods to manage..., build unique career pathways, and put in place
adequate support systems for teleworkers," organizations and managers should do. The
current study's findings revealed the importance of virtual work features. Our findings
suggest that managers may boost remote workers' productivity and well-being by
implementing high-quality remote work, while more research is needed in this area. When
flexible work practices are established, managers may use the work design viewpoint to
build better remote job designs today and in the future. Developing monitoring systems, for
example, might cost managers a lot of money.

5.3. Limitations

While conducting the research, the researcher encountered many constraints. They can be
referred to as:
The Researcher did not collect personal information from persons who had expertise of
home automation when collecting feedback. It is a constraint. If we get personal information
for research purposes, we can boost the value, but we must guarantee them that their
personal information is secure. For example, we may refer to the Data Protection Act of
2018. Another concern was the time constraint. As a result, more time was spent gathering
feedback and doing other tasks. As a result, there was no time to obtain more feedback.
because this study document must be submitted on schedule. The information for this study
came from only one source. As a result, it is impossible to draw broad conclusions because
it only uses their data. Because it is perceived as a constraint.

5.4. Future Improvements

5.5. Personnel Reflection

As a researcher, there were several advantages to doing this study. Here are a few examples.
Researchers have learnt, step by step, how to do proper study. Working using that method.
It is a life-changing event for students. In addition, the researcher learnt what research is,
how to do it, and how to work and build upon it. Furthermore, doing this task in a timely
manner was a rewarding experience. It is a prevalent feature in both ordinary life and any
professional business. This was an excellent preparation for the researcher. Furthermore,
this will allow the researcher to gather information in the future and expand on this
research.
