Meanwhile, Flexible Working Arrangement with Work Motivation intervention, also does not have a positive and significant effect on Employee Performance. Flexible working arrangements can be selected by employees based on different work schedules to meet personal or family needs. Companies can adjust work as the new normal for employees who are still working from home to return to full-time work on a hybrid basis. It is important for companies to understand and develop work from home and flexible working arrangements to encourage productive behavior and prevent unproductive behavior considering the role of work motivation in influencing performance.
