Abstract

The current study is about the lived experiences of professionals working from home and how it’s affecting their work productivity and well-being. Interpretative phenomenological analysis design was utilized in this study and purposive sampling was used for the respondents. Seven professionals from various fields of work in Metro Manila were the respondents of the research, all of them working full-time work from home, which also serves as the homogeneity that is needed for this chosen research design. Interviews through Zoom were conducted in order to acquire the information relevant to the study. The researchers utilized a researcher-made 15-item open-ended questionnaire that was validated by experts in the field of research and psychology as a theme, workplace productivity while working from home, the impact of working from home on well-being, and the importance of having a dedicated workplace at home. The results also concluded that the work-from-home setup had both positive and negative effects on employees. It gives employees a convenient working environment that allows them to work flexibly. In such settings, however, employees also tend to feel isolated and technologically inadequate. Employees tend to be more productive in WFH settings.
