Abstract: Remote work is becoming an inevitable practice in today’s business world which has transformed all business operations in times of COVID-19. This study aims to explore the roles of online time-spatial job crafting and leisure crafting for dealing with tele-pressure and techno-self-efficacy for improving remote work performance. Data are gathered through an online survey of 486 employees working in the IT sector of Pakistan and the partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) technique is used to analyze the hypothesis relationships. The results show that online job crafting and leisure crafting positively and significantly influence remote work performance. Moreover, findings indicate that tele-pressure partially mediates the relationship between online time job crafting and leisure crafting on remote work performance. Results also show that techno-self-efficacy positively moderates the relationship between online time job crafting and leisure crafting on tele-pressure. The findings provide insightful suggestions for building a collaborative remote workplace at the individual and collective level to implement job crafting interventions and enrich workers’ personal and organizational resources, which is helpful to cope with current challenges.
