| Summary: | This study focuses on evaluating direct relationships between workplace
environment, peer support, employee motivation and organisational support,
and employee productivity support within higher education institutions in
Malaysia during the Covid-19 pandemic. The Structural Equation Model
technique was utilised to assess the direct effects of workplace environment at
home, peer support, employee motivation, and organisational support on
employee productivity. The model was designed and later analysed using the
Partial Least Square procedure on data collected from a survey that yielded
579 usable questionnaires. The results demonstrated that workplace
environment, peer support, and employee motivation have a positive and
significant influence on employee productivity, while organisational support
has a negative and significant influence on employee productivity. The
findings suggest that higher education institutions should give greater
emphasis on strengthening the workplace environment at home, peer support,
employee motivation, and organisational support to ensure employee
productivity is high if a work-from-home policy is implemented. (Abstract by authors)
