Jarrod Haar, a professor at Massey University, said his research had consistently shown that hybrid workers - those going into the office and working from home - were most productive. He emphasized that having the option to work from home encourages collaboration and extra effort among colleagues, making workers feel they are in a favorable position, as demonstrated by the significant rise in remote work options since 2019.
Paula O'Kane from Otago University business school's work futures team noted the mixed evidence on productivity, stating that the impact of working from home varies by organization and individual. She highlighted that personality types may affect productivity, with introverts possibly thriving in home office environments while extroverts may miss the energizing social interactions of the office.
