Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2020 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Arbeit, Beruf, Ausbildung, Organisation, Note: 1,3, FOM Hochschule für Oekonomie & Management gemeinnützige GmbH, Nürnberg früher Fachhochschule, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: This paper examines the possibilities and limitations of working from home. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this way of working for both employers and employees and is this model of working conceivable under normal conditions in the future?

Whenever board members or managers held speeches in the past and talked about the future of the modern working world, the subject of the home office was already within reach. Flexible working hours, no long commuting distances, family and career together under one roof, that was the theory. In practice, however, this type of work was only implemented in isolated cases. To not let employees work in offices or conference rooms in the company, but at the dining table or in the living room at home? Unimaginable for many bosses. Consequently, it remained an abstract idea for most employees how it would feel to have home and office in the same place. But currently this knowledge gap is closing. The Corona epidemic is giving the working world an unprecedented field test. From one day to the next, managers and employees had to clear out their offices and were forced to work from home in their home office.
