Work from home and employee well-being: a double-edged sword.

Background: With the advancement of globalization and technology, remote work has gradually become a feasible and popular work model, particularly with the rapid adoption of working from home driven by the COVID-19 pandemic. This shift not only provides employees with greater flexibility and convenience, potentially enhancing their well-being, but also brings challenges such as blurred boundaries between work and family, and increased social isolation, which can lead to a decline in well-being. Therefore, exploring the dual-edged impact of working from home on employee well-being can help organizations design and implement better policies, enabling employees to balance work and family while improving overall well-being.
