Abstract:
The COVID 19 pandemic forced a reset on work-life balance for employees across all sectors. For a large number of employees, working from home was a new experience. While many of them found WFH good for the work-life balance, others felt the lack of corporate culture while working at home. This study explored the demographic differences in the preferences people experienced towards WFH. The finding clearly exposed the line between gender preferences. While women prefer time with co-workers at the office, men are more likely to spend free time in recreational activities. People perceive that work efficiency is better in the office, and the future intention to WFH is not clearly formed.
