Abstract

The Corona pandemic has caused a disparate disruption to global economies, and this is a result
of government measures taken to arrest the economic and educational sectors, and to close
borders, prompting institutions to search for alternatives to continuing activity, without the
possibility of transmission, and we find among these alternatives working remotely, which is an
approach that many have followed. Of institutions, especially educational ones
Aims: this study aims to know the most important factors that affect remote work in
Algerian universities, namely: the characteristics of the director, the characteristics of
the work environment, the characteristics of the work tasks, the characteristics of the
worker, the administrative support, the obstacles to working remotely, and their impact
on performance.
Study design: The descriptive and analytical approach was followed, by dividing the research
into two main axes, one theoretical and the other practical, and a questionnaire was developed
and distributed to a group of professors and employees in Algerian universities, and the data was
processed using the spss program.
Results: the study reached a set of results, which were:
- There is a statistically significant effect of the director's characteristics on job performance at
the Algerian University.
- There is a statistically significant effect of the characteristics of the work environment on job
performance at the Algerian University.
Conclusion: The performance of the teleworker depends to a large extent on the success of the
remote communication process between two important parties, namely the boss and the
subordinate, through the support and guidance provided by the manager and the follow-up to the
completion of tasks, and the success of remote work also depends on another essential point,
which is the work environment. Remote gives an impression and provides the same atmosphere
of the work office whenever this has a positive impact on the employee's performance.
