    Post-pandemic working-from-home regulations
    (08.08.2024) Huber, Fabrice
    This presentation talkes about a research project, which aims to identify optimal frameworks for post-pandemic working-from-home (WFH) policies, with the goal to balance organizational performance, employee satisfaction, and perceptions of fairness. The planned studies explore key considerations for fair WFH arrangements, such as which tasks are best suited for home versus office environments to address employees' psychological needs and maintain productivity. Initiated in 2023, the project involves developing and refining measurement tools, with multiple phases of data collection across distinct studies. Findings from this work will support evidence-based recommendations for effective and equitable WFH policy design, with final insights expected by the end of 2024.

    What are the concerns of claimants who underwent a disability assessment? – A case study
    (Springer, 2018) Lohss, Regine; Bachmann, Monica; Walter Meyer, Brigitte; de Boer, Wout; Kunz, Regina; Fischer, Katrin
    Little is known on how claimants experience disability assessments. While a variety of patient satisfaction instruments reflect the quality of medical care, no such tool exists for the assessment of work disability. In disability assessment, fairness is a central component of the claimants’ satisfaction with the assessment. We therefore developed a questionnaire that measures to what degree claimants experience the disability assessment as fair. Beyond the 26 items related to fairness, we asked the claimants to comment on additional aspects that affect their satisfaction or dissatisfaction with the assessment. Ninety-four of 305 participants provided feedback, 38 (40.4%) of which were satisfied, 52 (55.3%) were dissatisfied with the assessment, and 4 (4.3%) both or neither. Approving comments addressed in particular the empathy of the expert (13/94, 13.8%), while critical comments complained about poor time management (13/94, 13.8%) and interviewing skills of the experts (12.8%, 12/94). While all expressed satisfaction on varying degrees on the global 7- point scale, claimants expressing approval in their comments versus those with critical feedback were more satisfied (6.3 vs. 4.8) and perceived a higher level of fairness with the assessment (6.5 vs. 4.8, p<0.01, each).
