“…Digital transformation leads to a work transformation, which involves a reorganisation of work and ultimately changes the way people work (Anderson-Connolly et al , 2002). In this context, the acceptance of new technology as part of the daily routine is essential (Momani and Jamous, 2017). Technology acceptance is considered one of the main success factors of new technologies (e.g.…”

PurposeThis study investigates whether the COVID-19 pandemic has led to an acceleration of the digital transformation in the workplace.Design/methodology/approachThis study is based on a survey conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic from March to April 2020 on the crowdsourcing platform Amazon Mechanical Turk.FindingsThe findings show an increase of people working from home offices and that many people believe that digital transformation of work has accelerated in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. People who noted this acceleration can imagine working digitally exclusively in the future. Moreover, the importance of traditional jobs as a secure source of income has decreased, and digital forms of work as a secure source of income have increased because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Workers believe that digital work will play a more important role as a secure source of income in the future than traditional jobs.Research limitations/implicationsBecause the survey was conducted online, respondents may have had a certain affinity for digital work.Originality/valueThis study assesses the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on the future of work, showing that changes in the perception of digital transformation and the willingness to work exclusively in a digital manner have arisen as result of the COVID-19 pandemic. To estimate the long-term consequences of the pandemic on the digitisation of work, research that includes macroeconomic consequences in its forecast is necessary.

“…Numerous studies have given significant importance to technology acceptance theories. For instance, the innovation diffusion theory (Rogers, 1962) stated that attributes like compatibility, relative advantage (perceived usefulness), observability, trialability, and complexity (ease of use) were the parameters that would help to determine an individual's adoption of innovation (Momani and Jamous, 2017). The theory of reasoned action developed as a theory of planned behavior (Ajzen, 1991), has been widely used in several applications in diverse fields, i.e., technology, by the addition of perceived behavioral control.…”

“…Furthermore, a Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) proposed by Venkatesh et al (2003) indicated that effort expectancy, performance expectancy, and social influence proved to be the factors that determine the intention and behavior of technology use. Studies focusing on Information and Communication Technology (ICT) have been incorporating recent developments of deterring factors in their theories to fulfill needs and improve facilities, as these are essential prerequisites for the technology's utilization, realization, and acceptance (Momani and Jamous, 2017). Although ICT creates innovation and incorporates the theories into action, a lack of knowledge and proper awareness would hinder them from availing the benefits of these services provided by the government and private sectors (Reffat, 2003).…”

While COVID-19 has taken a toll on many professions and livelihood of all walks of lives, technology has amplified its intrusion to ease the necessities. Innovative technology, therefore, has improved the glitches and provided the software to adhere to these new normal. However, individuals' awareness and attitude toward the advancements of these technological trends need to be addressed. Although the government has taken measures to prevent and curb the growing cases for COVID-19 with the help of technology, the support from the individuals would depend mostly on their level of awareness and the attitude toward those measures. The present qualitative study explored the techno trend awareness, perception and attitudes of techno experts and technical professionals toward social connectedness and mitigating factors of COVID-19. Besides, it also explained individuals' shift toward virtual interaction to maintain social connections during the pandemic. The thematic analysis generated four prominent themes. Social Connectedness, emphasized on the emotional connections that created a positive feeling of belongingness. Technological Advancement provided three sub-themes highlighting perception, techno trend awareness and desirable attitudes toward the mitigation of COVID-19. The categories under Treatment and Preventive Measures indicated the enhanced self-care of individuals and also the tendencies to minimize the spread of diseases. The emergence of the theme Inclination toward Indigenous Knowledge, which is an important finding, indicated the techno-experts inclination toward the indigenous knowledge amid vague scientific shreds of evidence.

“…The Theory of Planned Behaviour is also derived from the Decomposed Theory of Planned Behaviour (DTPB). The Theory behind Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) has been derived from The Theory of Reasoned Action TRA [9]. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) has been applied to various disciplines of research.…”

The study attempted to determine the “Acceptance” of computer based Information Systems or Management Information Systems in the university staff members of cities of Madhya Pradesh. This was obtained on four indicators namely; 1) information systems/ Management information systems use by university staff members is the “Mandate”; 2) Dependency on information systems of university staff members; 3) Ease in work of university staff members by using Management Information system 4) Work preference by using MIS systems over manual way amongst university staff members. The study was descriptive with stratified sampling. Data collected from two state universities and two private universities. Results indicated that university staff members were using information systems because of universities’ mandate. They experienced ease in their daily work and thus developed dependency on these systems for obtaining all required data and information regarding their work. Results from Chi-Square tests indicated that there was significant difference found in opinion between state university staff members and private university staff members.
