Paper Abstract:
|
This article presents an exploratory approach to identify different clusters of employees' perceived stress, work anxiety and self-efficacy according to their individual technological, organizational, and personal parameters. In more detail, our research focuses on the context of remote work during the Covid 19 pandemic to analyze which combination of these parameters co-occur with particularly high or low levels of resilience-related variables such as self-efficacy, work stress, and work anxiety. We conduct a two-step cluster analysis to present findings to resolve the ambiguity of previous research on the role and understanding of resilience in the context of remote work and in light of the pandemic. As a result, this study shows that study participants with different levels of experienced stress and anxiety have different technological, personal, and organizational contexts. Moreover, we were able to identify technological factors associated with work resources that are linked to less stress and work anxiety. A deeper understanding of the factors underlying lower levels of stress in remote work through this study can help identify potential areas of improvement for individuals and organizations and provides a basis for further research in this area. |
