2019 APR 26 (VerticalNews) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Ecology, Environment & Conservation -- Data detailed on
Economics - Human Resources and Labor Economics have been presented. According to news originating from Kaunas, Lithuania,
by VerticalNews correspondents, research stated, "The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationships between theoretically
grounded telework factors and various individual and organizational outcomes of telework (overall satisfaction with telework,
perceived advantages of telework, career opportunities and self-reported productivity). Design/methodology/approach Based on a
literature review, ten telework factors that may affect individual and organizational telework outcomes were identified and empirically
tested using the survey data of 128 teleworkers exercising different telework intensity and representing various sectors of the
economy."

Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research, "The bundle of theoretically selected variables explained a significant part
of the variance of telework outcomes. Reduced communication with co-workers, supervisor's trust and support, suitability of the
working place at home were found to be the most important telework factors impacting different telework outcomes. Higher self-
reported productivity was related to reduced time in communicating with co-workers, a suitable working place at home and the
possibility to take care of family members when teleworking. Practical implications - This study provides insights about the
management of telework in organizations by highlighting the factors that promote the satisfaction, productivity and perceived career
opportunities of teleworkers. Originality/value - This paper challenges the results of previous research on the factors related with
telework and its outcomes."

According to the news editors, the research concluded: "Based on the job demands- resources theory, the authors identified the
factors that serve as resources in generating positive telework outcomes, and the factors increasing job demands and reducing
satisfaction with telework."
