Zusammenfassung

Technologische, sozioökonomische und kulturelle Entwicklungen der letzten Jahrzehnte sowie zuletzt die Covid-19-Pandemie führten zu einer erhöhten Nachfrage nach flexiblen Arbeitsformen wie Homeoffice. In der Forschung wird danach gefragt, welche Faktoren die Umsetzung von flexiblen Arbeitsmodellen in Unternehmen beeinflussen und wie die Faktoren miteinander zusammenhängen. Bisher bietet die Forschung allerdings zu wenige Ansatzpunkte, um relevante Handlungsempfehlungen für eine erfolgreiche Umsetzung von Homeoffice für die Praxis abzuleiten. In dieser Fallstudie können auf organisationaler Ebene technologische, formelle und informelle Rahmenbedingungen, auf interaktionaler Ebene das Team und die Kommunikation sowie auf individueller Ebene Präferenzen, Kompetenzen und personenbezogene Rahmenbedingungen der Beschäftigten als relevante Einflussfaktoren identifiziert werden. Die Themenfelder sind eng miteinander verbunden, wobei sich vor allem stark vernetzte und einflussreiche Faktoren, wie formelle und technologische Rahmenbedingungen sowie Kommunikation, als Ansatzpunkte für die Gestaltung von Homeoffice eignen.
