In contrast, the introduction of remote work increases job satisfaction, although only temporarily. However, the termination of remote work causes a clear imbalance. On average, remote work has no significant impact on work-life balance, which is conditioned by private interests. A private life can reduce work-life balance under specific conditions, namely, if remote work takes place outside of contracted working hours and during the first phase of remote work. ![]() Work-life imbalance may be induced by job-related causes. We present average effects and demonstrate under which conditions remote work is advantageous for employees. Our control variables are personality traits, skills, employment and job characteristics. The recent work has highlighted a dramatic shift toward working from home The objective of this contribution is to empirically analyze the relationship between working remotely and job satisfaction on the one hand, as well as between working remotely and work-life balance on the other hand, based on three waves of the German Linked Personnel Panel. Until the COVID-19 crisis the share of remote workers was relatively low and empirical investigations show inconsistent results. Working remotely can complement and sometimes completely substitute conventional work at the workplace of the company.
