The influence of remote working on voluntary employee attrition in Poland

Abstract

As the pandemic subdues, firms are faced with a dilemma: should employees return to the office full time? If not, what does a potential hybrid model of working look like? To be specific, employees’ expectations of the remote working arrangement have changed following the mandated virtual working which may influence employee attrition. The influence of remote working on the attrition is investigated by answering two questions: (i) which effects of remote working are particularly attractive; and (ii) does remote working lead to lower employee attrition?
