contents Disentangling the attractiveness of telework to employees: a factorial survey experiment Eline Moens (Author) Elsy Verhofstadt (Author) Luc Van Ootegem (Author) Stijn Baert (Author) This article analyses the attractiveness of telework using a factorial survey experiment in which employees evaluate job offers with diverging characteristics, including a wide variation in the possibility to telework. This allows us to show that the relationship between the possibility to telework and job attractiveness is approximately linear: 10 percentage points (pp) more telework hours yield a rise of 2.2 pp in attractiveness and, therefore, the willingness to forego a 2.2 pp wage increase in the new job. Our experimental design also allows us to investigate the underlying mechanisms and moderators of this relationship structurally and extensively. 10.1111/ilr.12424 DOI https://doi.org/10.1111/ilr.12424 publication.journalArticle
