| Abstract | Investigating work-life wellness is key to improving the physical health, mental health, and productivity of remote workers. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, more teleworkers are choosing to work remotely, and this may have an impact on their work-life wellness. We explored the structure and reliability of a work-life wellness scale with items adapted from three existing instruments. Participants were 199 remote workers from Western Canada. Participants were asked to rate the extent to which they agreed with the statements on a seven-point Likert scale. Exploratory factor analysis yielded two factors: work-life functioning and work-life interference. The scale was also found to have strong internal consistency. |
