概要

Purpose
This exploratory paper examines attitudes and practices with regards to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the effects of mandatory teleworking from home in the wake of the first state of emergency orders in Japan in 2020.
Methodology
An online survey of married employees retrospectively assessed changes in work style, subjective well-being, work-family conflict and job performance before and during forced teleworking from home in Tokyo and three of the surrounding prefectures.

Findings
Regular employees reported high levels of anxiety and to have thoroughly implemented government-recommended hygiene and safety practices. A majority of respondents were satisfied with mandatory telework from home and desired to continue partial telework after the end of the pandemic. The strongest predictor of satisfaction with mandatory telework from home turned out to be adequate workspace at home for both men and women. However, the antecedents of the desire to continue working from home differed by gender.

Practical implications
These findings can help individuals, firms and governments better understand the effects of mandatory teleworking from home and devise countermeasures to maximize employee well- being and job performance. This is all the more crucial as Japan has had successive waves of the virus and has declared numerous states of emergency since the beginning of the pandemic, forcing office workers to continue social distancing and remote working for the time being.

Originality
This research is one of the first to provide insights on how imposed teleworking from home in the context of COVID-19 in Japan affected regular employees’ personal and professional lives, and to identify predictors of satisfaction with teleworking and the desire to continue doing so.

Keywords: COVID-19, Japan, Telework, Satisfaction, Performance
