The research subject pertains to urgent matters concerning the evolving character of work, obstacles in regulations, and financial approaches adopted by organisations. The study is substantiated by its significance in the present-day business realm, its capacity to enlighten strategic decision-making, and its contribution to the ongoing discussions concerning the prospective nature of work. The research aims to thoroughly comprehend the monetary consequences of remote and hybrid work models. These aims encompass assessing financial metrics, examining the connection between work models and employee dynamics, and scrutinising the regulatory framework influencing financial decisions in the changing work environment. This qualitative study examines the financial implications of remote and hybrid work model trends. It focuses on the viewpoint of CEOs, CFOs, HR executives, and other critical management positions across various industries due to the growing remote work trend. The research conducted in-depth interviews with 20 management position holders to explore their experiences and decision-making processes. The study investigates how businesses integrate regulatory considerations into financial decision-making, address legal compliance, and adjust financial strategies to cater to remote work requirements. Furthermore, this research analyses the impact of tax implications on financial planning, necessitating closer collaboration between finance teams and tax experts. The research shows that adhering to regulations and labour laws directly impacts how much money is allocated for legal consultations and adjustments required for remote work. Tax implications are also important in financial decision-making, and organisations often seek expert advice to understand the financial impact. In addition, knowledge about government initiatives and incentives can help organisations make informed decisions about financial strategies, especially regarding technology investments and employee support programmes. The research presents significant qualitative viewpoints regarding the complex correlation among regulatory environments, financial decision-making, and the acceptance of remote and hybrid work patterns. The results provide applicable consequences for businesses dealing with the changing conditions of work models and add to the broader discussion on the future of work.

Tematyka badawcza dotyczy pilnych zagadnień związanych ze zmieniającym się charakterem pracy, przeszkodami regulacyjnymi oraz podejściem finansowym organizacji. Badanie potwierdza jego znaczenie we współczesnej sferze biznesowej, jego zdolność do podejmowania strategicznych decyzji oraz wkład w toczące się dyskusje na temat perspektywicznego charakteru pracy. Badanie ma na celu dogłębne zrozumienie konsekwencji finansowych modeli pracy zdalnej i hybrydowej. Cel ten obejmuje ocenę wskaźników finansowych, zbadanie powiązań między modelami pracy a dynamiką pracowników oraz analizę ram regulacyjnych wpływających na decyzje finansowe w zmieniającym się środowisku pracy. Badanie jakościowe analizuje finansowe implikacje trendów w modelach pracy zdalnej i hybrydowej. Koncentruje się na punkcie widzenia dyrektorów generalnych, dyrektorów finansowych, dyrektorów HR i innych krytycznych stanowisk kierowniczych w różnych branżach ze względu na rosnący trend pracy zdalnej. W ramach badania przeprowadzono wywiady pogłębione z 20 osobami na stanowiskach kierowniczych, aby poznać ich doświadczenia i procesy decyzyjne. W badaniu sprawdzono, w jaki sposób firmy uwzględniają kwestie regulacyjne w procesie podejmowania decyzji finansowych, zajmują się zgodnością z prawem i dostosowują strategie finansowe, aby sprostać wymaganiom pracy zdalnej. Ponadto w badaniu przeanalizowano wpływ implikacji podatkowych na planowanie finansowe, co wymaga ściślejszej współpracy między zespołami finansowymi a ekspertami podatkowymi. Z badań wynika, że przestrzeganie przepisów prawa pracy ma bezpośredni wpływ na to, ile pieniędzy przeznacza się na konsultacje prawne i dostosowania wymagane do pracy zdalnej. Implikacje podatkowe są również ważne w podejmowaniu decyzji finansowych, a organizacje często zwracają się o poradę eksperta, aby zrozumieć skutki finansowe. Poza tym wiedza na temat inicjatyw i zachęt rządowych może pomóc organizacjom w podejmowaniu świadomych decyzji dotyczących strategii finansowych, zwłaszcza w odniesieniu do inwestycji technologicznych i programów wsparcia pracowników. W badaniu przedstawiono istotne pod względem jakości punkty widzenia dotyczące złożonej korelacji między środowiskami regulacyjnymi, podejmowaniem decyzji finansowych oraz akceptacją modeli pracy zdalnej i hybrydowej. Wyniki dostarczają odpowiednie konsekwencje dla przedsiębiorstw zajmujących się zmieniającymi się warunkami modeli pracy i wnoszą wkład w szerszą dyskusję na temat przyszłości pracy.
