Perception of Work Performance in Home-Office Mode

Abstract

Work in home office mode is already a reality for many national and international organizations. In Brazil, according to Sobratt (2018), 45% of 315 companies from different areas of the economy have already joined this work modality. As a result of the pandemic of Covid-19, companies in sectors classified as non-essential, from both spheres, public and private, were pushed to adopt remote work to continue their business activities. So, this study aims to analyze the perception of work performance in the modality of Home-Office comparing the average indexes of different generations. Findings showed that despite of Y and Z generations are theoretically composed of a profile of people with greater skills for digital technologies (Kurz, Li, Vine, 2019) which seem to be a pre-requisite for adapting to remote work (FIA, 2020)[1], on average, Z generation reached a level (2.84) of perception below the average (3.0) considered for this study. In addition, Y generation, despite being above the average (4.06), obtained a lower index when compared to X generation (4.35).

Work Values and Attitudes Toward the Technology of Generation Z in Brazil and Germany

“…As the most diverse generation (Pichler et al, 2021), Gen Z values women's rights, transgender rights, religious freedom, and human rights (Seemiller & Grace, 2017). Gen Z, as a global generation, cares less about geographical frontiers (Barros et al, 2021). For Gen Z, smartphones and social media have become a consistent part of their lives.…”

“…For Gen Z, it is common to communicate through technology and keep in touch with people through frequent Internet use. Therefore, relationships are often less interpersonal (Barros et al, 2021). Çora (2019) also states that the attention span of this generation is shorter and, therefore, their communication includes many symbols, emojis, and emoticons.…”
