This review considers empirical evidence on the connection between remote working and employee wellbeing. Remote working has increased substantially in recent years, partly due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but evidence related to its effects and to the implications for managing these employees is patchy. The review identifies three main areas of focus for prior research: the wellbeing impacts of remote working, the antecedents of wellbeing impacts and the ways in which employers address wellbeing in remote workers.
