Abstract:

Since 2020, there has been a noticeable rise in the prevalence of online work. The catalyst for this shift was the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, which was subsequently followed by a state of war. These circumstances compelled numerous individuals to acquire proficiency in the latest information technologies to retain their employment or seek new opportunities. The convergence of the COVID-19 pandemic and the war has heightened several risk factors associated with compromised mental well-being within the realm of professional activities. This circumstance remains true for educators across all educational levels, spanning from primary school to tertiary education. As with any phenomenon, both favorable and unfavorable facets can be discerned. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive description of the primary factors influencing the psychological well-being of individuals engaged in professional work in an online mode. It meticulously investigates the dual-edged sword of online work, accentuating the necessity for a balanced approach to remote employment. It emphasizes the critical need for adaptive measures and support systems to harness the benefits of remote work while minimizing its psychological detriments. By exploring the intersection of technological advancements and psychological health, this research sheds light on the complex dynamics at play, advocating for a more nuanced understanding and strategic interventions to ensure the well-being of professionals navigating the digital work landscape.
