Abstract

COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 forced billions of people worldwide to practice remote working with little or no prior experience, working for companies that are unprepared for this change. The quality of remote working then becomes an ultimate question, whether people can adapt or not, and what determinants are influencing it. Earlier, a remote working self-efficacy model was developed to accommodate such situations. However, it was meant to assess virtual companies with reliable ICT and enough training for the employees. The research tries to put self-efficacy theory and its antecedent amid unpreparedness. There are 46 respondents in Jakarta, Central Java, and Yogyakarta provinces participating in the study, conducted in May 2021, when increasing virus transmission reinforces companies to close their premises. The study showed how social persuasion, physiological and emotional states affect remote working quality differently from earlier research. It also reveals the mediating function importance of self-efficacy in doing so.
