Resumen

Introduction: Remote work has become a reality for many companies around the world and the latest pandemic has generated an abrupt and accelerating change in the way work used to work, so companies and workers have had to adapt quickly, embracing remote work as a tool that allows an unexpected leap into the future of work. Methodology: A field study was carried out, applying a survey, based on 55 items, addressed to a sample of 120 employees in remote work conditions in six different countries. Results: The results show that remote work significantly influences work well-being in virtual organizations with a significance level of less than 0.05. Discussions: The key to success lies in careful planning, implementation of inclusive policies and ongoing support for employees to ensure a healthy and productive work environment in any location. Conclusions: The study reflects acceptance and liking for this type of work modality; the countries with the best adaptation to this modality are the USA, Spain, Colombia and Mexico, while in Peru and Guatemala the adaptation and satisfaction indexes were lower.
