ZEW’s role in WinWin4WorkLife

ZEW is contributing its expertise to the WinWin4WorkLife project by analysing employers’ willingness to implement various remote working arrangements and their potential use as a recruitment tool amid the ongoing skilled labor shortages. As part of this effort, ZEW is developing and conducting a large-scale survey among firms in five European countries to gather crucial data and insights.

Remote Work Experience

Daniel Erdsiek, Researcher and Work Package Leader for ZEW, shares his experience:

« I work from home around two days per week. During the pandemic, the transition was seamless as we were already equipped with the necessary tools. Hybrid work schedules with at least one or two days in the office per week help mitigate potential drawbacks such as reduced communication or team cohesion, making it a balanced approach for long-term success.. »
