Abstract

Teleworking, generalized during the COVID-19 pandemic, has reshaped professional practices in Morocco. This study analyzes its effects on productivity, efficiency, and well-being of Moroccan employees through a mixed-method approach combining survey data and semi-structured interviews. The results indicate short-term gains in productivity due to flexibility and reduced commuting time, yet long-term challenges such as digital fatigue, social isolation, and blurred work-life boundaries undermine efficiency and well-being. Managerial support, digital training, and robust technological infrastructures are identified as critical enablers. Based on the findings, the article proposes policy recommendations to enhance teleworking conditions in Morocco and highlights research avenues regarding creativity, career development, and regional disparities.
