摘要

在2019冠状病毒病大流行之后，远程工作或混合工作仍然存在，尽管并非没有好处也有缺点。工作与生活的平衡是远程工作者的基本需求，在远程工作中，这种需求可能会受到阻碍，也可能会得到促进。远程工作的持续采用保证了远程工作者面临的工作与生活平衡的关键挑战得到解决。因此，本研究通过综合综合有关远程工作和工作生活平衡的文献，为远程工作者的工作生活平衡过程提供了见解。本文认为，远程工作者的工作与生活平衡过程涉及一个工作与生活认知系统，该系统负责维持工作与生活系统的平衡。远程工作者的工作-生活系统包括要素、资源、力量、有用工作和产出。实现工作和非工作领域之间的平衡是工作-生活系统中要素、资源和力量之间相关过程的一个功能。本文将工作与生活平衡认知系统称为“工作与生活平衡机器”。工作与生活平衡机器提供了关于远程工作者如何以及需要学习、适应和改变环境的知识，以实现工作与生活的最佳平衡。因此，在理论和概念的融合和文献综合证据的基础上，本文提出了一个模型;工作-生活平衡机和工作-生活平衡的定义。此外，本文还强调了在开发、支持和维持远程工作者的工作与生活平衡方面对人力资源管理至关重要的可操作见解。

The Work-Life Balance Machine

Remote work or hybridized work has come to stay post COVID-19 pandemic, though not without both benefits and drawbacks. Work-life balance represents an essential need of remote workers, which could either be hindered or promoted during remote work. The continuous adoption of remote work warrants that the crucial challenge of work-life balance facing remote workers be addressed. Therefore, this study offers insights regarding the work-life balance processes of remote workers by following a research approach that involves synthesizing literature about remote work and work-life balance in an integrative way. This article upholds that the work-life balance processes of remote workers involve a work-life cognitive system that is responsible for maintaining equilibrium in the work-life system. The work-life system of remote workers includes elements, resources, forces, useful work, and output. Achieving balance between work and non-work domains is a function of the relative processes among the elements, resources, and forces within the work-life system. This article refers to the work-life balance cognitive system as ‘the work-life balance machine’. The work-life balance machine provides knowledge about how and what remote workers need to learn, adapt to, and change in the environment in order to develop an optimally balanced work and life. Thus, based on the blending of theories and concepts with the synthesized evidence from literature, this article offers a model; the work-life balance machine and a definition of work-life balance. In addition, this paper highlights actionable insights critical for human resource management in developing, supporting, and maintaining remote workers’ work-life balance.

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Business and Management Science (IJBMS) (Print: ISSN 1837-6614; Online: 1985-692X) is a double-blind peer-reviewed semiannual journal. Generally the journal publishes the articles that expand knowledge on business and management issues. Business Complexity and Performance Management were the two of the top ten problems IJBMS cover pageof 20th century management. In the 21st century, overcoming such problems seem to be challenging to educators and practitioners. Do educators and practitioners agree on which management skills are required for success in the 21st century? These all issues call for substantial research to achieve a very modern sustainable business era of the global economy. IJBMS intends to focus on the business and management issues with the vision of sustainable competitiveness along with scientific evidences. The quantitative approach for analyzing a research problem is promoted by IJBMS.
