The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has led to a significant shift in the working landscape, with remote work becoming the new norm for many organizations. This research project aims to investigate the impact of remote work on employee engagement and performance in the post-pandemic era, focusing on the role of HR strategies and best practices in managing remote teams effectively. The study will begin by providing an introduction to the topic, highlighting the background of the study and the increasing trend of remote work adoption in the wake of the pandemic. The problem statement will address the challenges and opportunities associated with remote work, particularly in relation to maintaining high levels of employee engagement and performance in virtual environments. The objectives of the study will be outlined to guide the research process, along with a discussion of the limitations and scope of the study. A comprehensive review of the existing literature will be conducted in Chapter Two, exploring key concepts such as remote work, employee engagement, performance management, and HR strategies for remote teams. The literature review will provide a theoretical foundation for the research, highlighting current trends, challenges, and best practices in managing remote work arrangements. Chapter Three will focus on the research methodology, detailing the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, and data analysis procedures. The chapter will also discuss ethical considerations and limitations of the research methodology to ensure the validity and reliability of the study findings. In Chapter Four, the findings of the research will be presented and discussed in detail. The impact of remote work on employee engagement and performance will be analyzed, along with the effectiveness of different HR strategies and best practices in supporting remote teams. The chapter will also explore the implications of the findings for HR practitioners and provide recommendations for enhancing employee engagement and performance in remote work settings. Finally, Chapter Five will present the conclusion and summary of the research project. The key findings, implications, and contributions of the study will be summarized, along with recommendations for future research and practical implications for HR professionals.
