Abstract
COVID-19 caused great effects on public health and unprecedented losses to economies and labour markets. Companies mostly chose working remotely rather than laying employees off. However, COVID-19 introduced radical changes to all aspects of life. Regarding workplace, human resources practices are not enough for managing behaviour, motivation, and competencies of the employees working remotely. In addition, the workplace's design is not in compliance with regulations newly made by national and international authorities. Towards this end, this chapter discusses the design of the office that will be used during and after pandemic. Meanwhile, the chapter discusses human resources practices that may be employed in order to facilitate the process of working remotely.
