Abstract: The implications of the COVID-19 pandemic have greatly changed the norm in the employment system. Workers in both the public and private sectors are now adapted to the term "Work from Home" (WFH). Also, despite the little information on reliable practices for working from home, employees are nevertheless expected to perform at their highest level in accordance with the organizational goals. Therefore, this study is aimed to evaluate the need of establishing a guideline for WFH. A total of 178 employees from both private and government sectors were recruited in this survey. Findings showed that 69.1% of staff agreed their organization should provide them with proper guidelines in the implementation of WFH. It means that when they have specific guidelines it enables them to work more independently which also exhibits flexibility and creativity. As a conclusion, the developed and validated WFH manual handbook is able to become the main reference for employees for them to prepare physically and mentally while working efficiently from home.
