“…In another study, flexible working hours were perceived as a benefit of working from home and an increased focus on work was also reported ( Diab-Bahman and Al-Enzi, 2020 ). In contrast, in a study on women who worked from home in India ( Bhattacharjee, 2020 ), the participants reported that working from home had some disadvantages, such as difficulty transitioning between their domestic role and working role, and the added burden of chores.…”

New concerns have emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic that greatly impact employees and many other aspects in organizations. We have highlighted the major organizational issues during COVID-19 and classified the relevant research findings based on 45 recent articles. Main themes identified include (1) work setting, (2) perceptions of COVID-19, (3) employee wellbeing, (4) organizational strategies, and (5) influences on career behaviors. Employees have faced challenges due to work conditions that have shifted from traditional commuting to telework. Employees have also become aware of the negative current situation, so their overall wellbeing has been threatened. In response, organizations have strived to promote positive psychological capital for employees as they attempt to cope with this crisis. Organizations have tried to maintain and manage both their employees and their business. People tended to adjust their career-related behaviors based on how they perceived their own wellbeing and organizational strategies.

When the pandemic outbreak happened back in the year 2020, the Government and the policymakers took preventive steps and directive measures to sustain social movement and infection among the citizens. Common action that has been taken globally was the implementation of lockdown. Consequently, non-essential businesses or organizations had to resolve to transition from central office to work-from-home for as long as the lockdown period ended. This has brought a greater change in the world of work and boosted the experimentation of work-from-home arrangements worldwide. Despite it being a practice that some may have experienced before, it is still relatively uncommon and unusual to be done on such a large scale for some countries. Therefore, many are interested to see the outcome of work-from-home, the impact it had on employers, employees, and companies. However, the ample amount of works of literature made it hard to distinguish the direction and trend of this research. This paper aims to identify and highlight the major findings on the impacts of work-from-home by reviewing 55 published papers in the year between 2020 to 2021 and analyze them through a thematic analysis. The results show 60 percent of these studies are covered by the field of social sciences which both involve developed and developing countries. Nevertheless, the impact of work-from-home was found common as the problem used to arise even before the pandemic happened. This gives an opportunity in future studies to finally resolve some of these problems if work-from-home soon becomes the 'new norm' in the world of work.

“…Mereka merasa menjalani pekerjaan tanpa beban karena tidak pernah lagi meninggalkan keluarga ke luar kota seperti sebelumnya dan semua pekerjaan dapat dilakukan di rumah sambil menjaga anak-anak dan keluarga. Senada dengan wanita pekerja di India, mereka melakukan perjalanan jarak jauh setiap hari untuk mencapai tempat kerja, dan kemampuan untuk bekerja dari rumah telah menghemat banyak waktu yang biasanya hilang dalam perjalanan, sehingga waktu tersebut lebih bermanfaat untuk menyeimbangkan peran yang lain (Bhattacharjee, 2020).…”

This study aims to reveal and understand in depth about how women carry out company policies to enforce work from home (WFH) rules in their career development models. The researcher uses the interpretive paradigm and phenomenology as a basis to obtain a comprehensive description of individual speech and behavior, so as to be able to know the harmonization of Work From Home at the stages of the women career development cycle. The key informants in the study were 6 career women who were in the early, mid to late career phases. The results show that in the idealistic achievement model phase, WFH for women is seen as an obstacle in achieving their careers; the pragmatic endurance model phase, WFH makes life easier for them to carry out their dual roles in a balanced way; In the re-inventive contribution model phase, WFH has a fun impact, because they can work from home while pursuing a hobby so they are happier.
