WinWin4Worklife would like to help make flexible working arrangements (Remote Working Arrangements, RWA) in Europe healthy, integrative and sustainable.

The project has five main objectives:
1) to develop an interdisciplinary understanding of how the personal and professional spheres are affected by remote work;
2) an assessment of which living and working conditions ensure a healthy work-life balance in RWA for men and women;
3) Development of forecast models for the impacts of different RWA scenarios on mobility, land use, air quality, noise and health;
4) Improving knowledge about the role of culture, regional context and welfare systems in the uptake of RWA by employees and employers; and
5) development of evidence-based spatial policy for sustainable implementation of RWA.

ZEW will contribute to this international project by focusing, among other things, on employers' willingness to offer and reward various RWAs and to use them as a recruiting tool in times of skilled labour shortages.
