Summary Excerpt Details

The paper, through critical review of secondary data, aims to explore the perceived prospects, success factors, and challenges of this emerging work arrangement for Nigerian employees and organizations. Teleworking practices have been increasing internationally due to the global expansion of organizational boundaries it offers businesses. It had been perceived as a crucial response to competitive imperatives by top multinationals even prior to the Covid-19 pandemic. In Nigeria however, it was the Covid-19 lockdowns that obligated the adoption of teleworking practices by organizations, as a means of business continuity.

The benefits of teleworking offered in the business environment during the period have since brought about conjectures it could become part of the “new normal’ even after the pandemic. Despite this, the globally reported prospects and challenges for employees and organizations have largely not been investigated in the Nigerian context.
