“…Results for the Sverdlovsk region for 2015-2016 suggest that remote work prior to COVID-19 increased job satisfaction amongst highly skilled workers and contributed to the Working from home and job satisfaction growth of women's employment (Pesha and Tonkikh, 2020). However, these results are not representative of Russia as a whole and cannot be used to draw conclusions on the overall situation in the country.…”

“…This study goes beyond previous research. The study sample is not limited to specific populations (Kivi et al, 2021) or regions (Pesha and Tonkikh, 2020), nor does it contain aggregated data (Huebener et al, 2020). This study was conducted on a representative panel data set from the Russian Longitudinal Monitoring Survey (RLMS-HSE) for 2016-2021.…”

PurposeThis study aims to investigate the impact of working from home and its duration on job satisfaction.Design/methodology/approachThe analysis was conducted on a representative panel data set from the Russian Longitudinal Monitoring Survey - Higher School of Economics (RLMS-HSE) for 2016–2021 using endogenous regression models. The impact of working from home on job satisfaction before and during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, and separately for men and women, was analysed.FindingsWorking from home was found to positively affect job satisfaction in the Russian labour market. From 2016 to 2021, men and women who worked from home were more satisfied with their jobs than their counterparts who did not work from home. The positive impact of working from home on job satisfaction was observed before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, remote workers (RWR) putting in more than eight hours per day reported lower job satisfaction.Research limitations/implicationsWorking from home can be considered as a measure to combat unemployment, increase employment and improve the utilisation (distribution) of human resources. Further research is required to analyse the impact of health issues and the need to care for young children or infirm persons on job satisfaction in remote work. A more detailed analysis is required of the factors that affect the job satisfaction of women who work remotely.Practical implicationsTo ensure that labour productivity increases and not decreases, employers are advised to develop more detailed working arrangements and labour management for RWRs. Especially for such assigned workers, task control regulations must be developed. To increase the motivation of individuals to work remotely, overtime should be paid at a higher rate.Social implicationsUnclear working time regulations lead to overwork, irregular working hours and burnout. For RWRs, this leads to lower job satisfaction and a consequent drop in productivity.Originality/valueThe empirical investigation is based on a representative panel of Russian data with six waves. Wide ranges of job characteristics were incorporated as determinants. The problem of causality was investigated. For models with an endogenous regressor, instrumental variables were tested and selected.

“…In general, despite the advantages of telecommuting, a number of its disadvantages can be noted as social, for example, such as the absence of the usual offline communication, lack of feedback from colleagues; not being involved in the corporate culture of the company [16]; and organizational, for example, difficulties in self-organization during the working day [17,18]; and health problems [19,20].…”

The challenges of higher education that the world faced during the pandemic led to an emergency temporary transfer of faculty to a distance learning format. The article reveals the results of the analysis of socio-psychological problems that university teachers faced during the transition to remote employment. The work is based on a content analysis of previous studies of the issue, as well as data from a formalized online survey of faculty members of universities. The formalized survey was attended by 169 representatives of the teaching staff of universities in 10 cities of Russia. The article presents the main opportunities and disadvantages of remote employment and distance learning in higher education from the point of view of teachers. As a result of the study, the authors formulated the key opportunities and disadvantages of distance employment and identified the key social and psychological problems that require attention when organizing the activities of teachers. The labor market is changing, the requirements for the competencies of university professors are changing, it is necessary to systematically, strategically introduce changes by the administration when switching to a remote work format with a focus on the social and psychological well-being of employees.
