Research has shown that remote work arrangements (RWAs) lead to major changes in the control of work. However, the impact produced by remote working on the intensity and dynamics of control is not straightforward. Existing studies reveal two contradictory effects: some studies argue that RWAs increase control over employees while other argue that RWAs decrease control over employees. Our goal is not to adjudicate between these two effects, but instead - through an analytic literature review- to show the relationships between the dynamics of control in remote work.

Abstract

Research has shown that remote work arrangements (RWAs) lead to major changes in the control of work. However, the impact produced by remote working on the intensity and dynamics of control is not straightforward. Existing studies reveal two contradictory effects: some studies argue that RWAs increase control over employees while other argue that RWAs decrease control over employees. Our goal is not to adjudicate between these two effects, but instead - through an analytic literature review- to show the relationships between the dynamics of control in remote work.
