Since the pandemic Covid-19, the telework arrangement has played a significant role in Malaysia and has become one of the mechanisms to ensure business continuity. The changes in working arrangement somehow affected most of the employees as they need to adapt quickly to telework environment. This study aims to identify the relationship between teleworker's motivation and self-efficacy on their job performance. Survey data was collected from 369 academicians who are working from home during the Covid-19 pandemic. The results of this study reveal that there is a significant positive relationship between teleworker's motivation and self-efficacy on their job performance. In addition, both teleworker's motivation and self-efficacy variable is perceived as the most important factor that affects the teleworker's job performance. These factors need to be focused on to ensure the effectiveness of telework environment. On the other hand, the findings from this study have contributed to the significant development of WFH policies and guidelines for the company's practices in ensuring employees performed their job expectations regardless of the conventional office setting. Future studies suggested to study other characteristics that affect employees' job performance during working from home. Meanwhile, the organization may consider making working from home an option for academicians after moving into the endemic phase.

The study regarding telework should be given proper attention, especially after the Covid -19 pandemic in the last two years. It is widely known that telework impacts employees in many aspects, especially academicians who play a significant role in the acad emic progress of college and university students. This study aims to determine the relationship between telework factors in three areas: Motivation, Self-Efficacy, Self-Efficiency, Job Performance, and job performance. 369 samples were selected randomly from 8788 academic staff members of 13 UiTM branches. This study examined the link between every factor related to telework with job performance. The study used SPSS Version 22 to analyse the collected data. The findings showed that while all variables have moderate, positive relationships with job performance, only telework motivation and self -efficacy influence the job performance among academic staff in UiTM. A future study is suggested to determine the roles of telework self-efficiency towards job performance among management staff in UiTM because it's proof that these two variables have weak influences among UiTM's academician.
