With the increase in prevalence of working from home (WFH), understanding its impact on health has become more relevant. However, possibility that effects may depend specific WFH arrangement largely been ignored research. The aim this study is to offer a differentiated view by distinguishing between informal overtime at and telework during recognized time when assessing associations with mental physical complaints. Moreover, extent considered. also differentiates group non-users voluntary non-use employer-directed non-use. We apply OLS regression models clustered standard errors occupation probability-based survey data representative employees Germany. analytical sample was restricted whose job tasks could be performed (N = 10,365). Compared non-users, associated complaints, while fewer beneficial association only applies relatively small extents telework. At higher telework, advantages disappear, those for tend remain. This suggests nuanced look patterns use essential gauging health.

In the wake of COVID-19 pandemic, scholars mobilized their efforts to address its far-reaching societal problems. With mobility restrictions being front and center a new cohort transportation science was developed within short period time. Here, we examine more than 400 studies related published across journals during 2020 2021. The aim is (i) scope this newly segment research, (ii) outline diversity pandemic-related issues various divisions field (iii) provide roadmap for future line research. Common themes are identified existing congruence discrepancies findings discussed. Results show that although conventional methods research were adopted in virtually all studies, no pre-pandemic study particularly instrumental development literature. appears have own independent knowledge foundation, that, it does not systemically frequently look back at any particular reference.

This study synthesizes the empirical research on Work From Home (WFH) during COVID-19 from 2020 to 2022. The addressed two objectives; (1) find common WFH practices 2020–2022 period and (2) areas that are not in landscape (3) need attention future practices. A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) methodology Preferred Reporting Items for Reviews Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were used address these objectives. Following a predetermined article selection criteria, 108 articles included Scopus review. first objective found five of outcomes which are; attitudinal means WFH, Gender-related outcomes, Leadership challenges mental health (4) Work-related (5) Mobility-related outcomes. Addressing second objective, we have seven research, including related Determinants Occupational addressing objective. Moreover, implications practicality researchers also provided.

To develop effective climate strategies, it is necessary to model the long-term impacts of combined policy measures. This study examines how an increase in working-from-home (WFH) practices, coupled with higher private car fleet penetration electric vehicles (EVs), could change commuting patterns and associated emissions. Simulations for Dublin Region show that if half white-collar workers were WFH EVs made up one-third as forecasted 2030, emissions from travel activities be reduced by 35% carbon dioxide (CO2) 25% particulate matter (PM). However, transitioning a moderate high scenario may not deliver significant benefits terms length, modal shift, reduction. In addition, decrease commuter trips can lead other trips. suggests there need additional measures discourage usage when decline.

Energy and mobility poverty limits people's choices opportunities negatively impinges upon structural economic social welfare patterns. It also hampers the ability of planners to implement more equitable just decarbonization pathways. Research has revealed that climate policies have imposed a financial burden on low-income other vulnerable groups by increasing food energy prices, leading as well global inequality. Similarly, researchers warned in developing countries, emission mitigation could increase rates even frustrate progress towards universal access clean energy. This research explores whether experience 'double vulnerability', situation simultaneously positions people at heightened risk transport poverty. We investigate this vulnerability' through original data collection via three nationally representative surveys Mexico (N = 1,205), United Arab Emirates 1,141), Ireland Northern 1,860). draw from elaborate sociodemographic attributes, expenditure behaviour emerging use, focusing themes such equity, vulnerability. propose indexes allow us summarize key contributing factors countries studied uncover strong correlation between these two salient forms Our results suggest are common issues regardless very different national, sub-national, contexts. conclude requires target policy interventions suitable for all segments society, thus enabling contextually-tailored, transitions.
