Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic
led to the one of the most important workplace transformations in modern
history. Organisations across India embrace the remote work policies at an
exceptional scale. Remote and hybrid work models have become an important part of
organisational strategies in running business during these years. However,
organisations are still confused about how effective they are in long run for
improving employee productivity. The researcher through this study examines the
impact of remote work policies in India through two main aspects: employee
health, both physical as well as mental, and work performance -such as
coordination in teamwork, efficiency in employees’ performance, creativity, and
overall output. Based on related studies, conducted surveys, and reports from
2020 to 2024, the findings show that remote work improves employees’
flexibility, eliminates or reduces the stress of daily commuting, and helps in
maintaing a better work-life balance. When supported with the right policies,
technology, and management practices, remote work has the potential to create
positive outcomes for both workers and employers. However, challenges such as Cyber Security,
digital fatigue, ergonomic risks, blurred boundaries between work and home,
double-burden to women employees, social disconnection and less opportunities for
interactive sessions and collaborative innovation, create obstacles to
sustained performance. Researcher concludes that while remote work policies can
be effective in India, their success depends on organisational strategies,
investments in digital infrastructure by organisation as well as employees,
employee support systems, and hybrid work models that align health needs with
organizational goals.
