Presenteeism, the act of working while sick, is prevalent in remote work settings, resulting in negative impacts on productivity and employee health.
The competitive culture in many remote workplaces encourages presenteeism as employees feel they must demonstrate extreme productivity to keep up with their peers.
Digital surveillance tools may inadvertently promote presenteeism by creating pressure on employees to maintain visibility and perceived productivity, even when unwell.
Leaders influence workplace norms; when managers work through illness, it sets a precedent that encourages employees to also engage in presenteeism.
