The latest COVID-19 pandemic brought about salient alterations concerning several characteristics of people’s lives and routines. One of these major aspects relates to some people’s working places and customs. Unambiguously, the way gold and white-collar workers work has been altered due to the practices applied in response to the latest pandemic. Organizations and people experiencing remote working had an all-inclusive opportunity to evaluate trade-offs regarding working in offices and working from home or other convenient places. This paper defines and discusses the hybrid way, the new normal for gold and white-collar workers. Advantages, disadvantages, challenges, and success factors are also deliberated in this paper. Purposefully, mixed method research was conducted to get and distil experiences and views of gold and white-collar workers regarding the new current normal of working. Pertinent data to be analyzed and evaluated were collected from 2405 people (2365 questionnaires and 40 interviews). The outcomes concluded that the new normal for gold and white-collar workers are the hybrid way (a mix of working in offices and remotely from homes or other convenient places). Facets (items related to policy, tools, and steering) to consider are also discussed in the paper. This paper contributes to the management body of knowledge by providing additional evidence to the hybrid way of working for gold and white-collar workers. As experiences and views of workers are shaping the pertinent success and enhancements, this paper will be valuable for managers of organizations involving gold and white-collar workers, relevant policymakers, and other researchers exploring the new normal.

“…Así mismo, durante la jornada de trabajo remoto han sido indispensables el soporte técnico de plataforma y de software utilizados; en efecto, estas herramientas se seguirán utilizando luego de la COVID-19 (Wrycza y Maślankowski, 2020). Sin lugar a duda el trabajo remoto ya es parte intrínseca de la cotidianidad laboral actual y del futuro, por ello es necesario implementar acciones en mejora continua y propuestas nuevas de herramientas tecnológicas más sofisticadas que ayuden a llevar a cabo una labor eficiente (Field et al, 2021). Además, es importante establecer estrategias para que los trabajadores eviten demasiada conectividad y equilibrar así la actividad laboral con la vida familiar (Autoridad Nacional del Servicio Civil SERVIR, 2020; Errichiello y Demarco, 2020).…”

El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar las propiedades psicométricas de la escala de factores que intervienen en el trabajo remoto. Se realizó un estudio de tipo instrumental de corte transversal, el cual implicó un proceso de revisión de literatura, construcción del instrumento y validación por especialistas. Se realizó una prueba piloto conformada por 20 participantes, después se contó con 148 trabajadores estudiantes, cuyas respuestas permitieron realizar un análisis de discriminación de ítems, y por último se realizó un análisis factorial exploratorio. Se encontró pertinencia en las propiedades psicométricas del instrumento, conformadas por tres factores: soporte laboral tecnológico, jornada de trabajo y bienestar social. Se concluye que el instrumento propuesto se puede aplicar a cualquier organización laboral para identificar los factores que intervienen en el trabajo remoto.

“…There are calls for engaging occupational therapists in the creation of accessible options to promote working remotely, inclusive health and social networks, transportation systems and communities (e.g. Anzai et al, 2023; Field et al, 2021; Slegers et al, 2020). The role for ensuring we support people in adjusting to requirements to use technologies and as technologies change has also been noted (Liddle, Worthy, Frost, Taylor, Taylor, et al, 2022).…”
