This timely book develops an integrated analytical framework for interpreting the transformation of remote and hybrid working as it evolves from being a contingent organizational arrangement to a structural features of contemporary work systems. Bringing together legal, technological, organizational and behavioural perspectives, leading experts address fundamental questions surrounding the impact this development has had on how work is organized, governed and evaluated.

Adopting a systemic approach, contributors examine the interdependencies between regulatory frameworks, digital infrastructures and managerial practices in shaping work systems. They consider the implications of remote working for labour markets, organizational performance and worker well-being. Chapters assess the emergence of new forms of inequality and the limits of traditional control and evaluation mechanisms based on physical proximity and behavioural visibility. The book advances the argument that remote work requires a shift towards multidimensional, activity-based and context-sensitive methods of governance.

Combining conceptual analysis with applied contributions, The Remote Work Equation is essential reading for scholars and students of labour economics, organization studies, employment law and management accounting. Policymakers, business leaders and public sector professionals will also benefit from the book's evidence-based insights into the governance of remote work.
