Homework: a blessing for everyone?

(Partially) working from home is the new normal for many. There are many advantages to working from home. You don’t spend hours in traffic jams, it can provide a better work-life balance and you can work more flexibly.

Some people experience working from home as a blessing, but this does not apply to everyone.

Some people will be happy to work from home and their motivation & performance curve will rise. But, be careful: you can punish some people with it and their performance curve will decrease, and even worse, they will eventually look for other (more social) places…

“In other words, be careful with the ‘gift’ of working from home!

How do you find out who experiences working from home as a gift?

Thanks to the results of the BasicProfileScreen® personality test, we can now measure who experiences working from home as a blessing. Based on these results, you can make an optimal allocation of who you allow to work from home and who you allow to work (on a regular basis) in the office. This ‘homework-match’ is also included in our extensive report.
