Hi, I am looking for research on whether the level of satisfaction with remote work is affected by age. I am also interested in research on whether telework is perceived differently by men and women.
Best Regards

Yes, there is research on the correlation between age and satisfaction with remote work. According to a study1, telework satisfaction was higher for middle-aged individuals compared to younger and older individuals. Another study2 confirms that age is a factor affecting the evaluation of telework. As for gender, a study3 found that 56% of female teleworkers had a positive perception of home-based telework compared to 45% of male teleworkers. Gender inequality in telework perception and preference was also observed in the study.
