Both sample selection and survey administration have been done through social media messaging services owing to strict lockdown measures. FindingsAll in all, the results have shown that most of the participants are fairly satisfied with working from home (WFH) during the COVID19 pandemic. Work flexibility is the main factor contributing to this satisfaction. Moreover, the majority of the respondents have cited internet connectivity and maintaining the regular schedule as the biggest challenges of telecommuting. Finally, most of the participants have felt that they have been getting more work done at home as compared to onsite locations.
