ABSTRACT COVID-19 has caused unprecedented challenges to our lives. Many governments have forced people to stay at home, leading to a radical shift from on-site to virtual collaboration for many knowledge workers. Existing remote working literature does not provide a thorough explanation of government-enforced working from home situations. Using an affordance lens, this study explores the sudden and enforced issues that COVID-19 has presented, and the technological means knowledge workers use to achieve their team collaboration goals. We interviewed 29 knowledge workers about their experiences of being required to work from home and introduced the term “enforced work from home”. This paper contributes to the affordance theory by providing an understanding of the substitution of affordances for team collaboration during COVID-19. The shifting of affordances results in positive and negative effects on team collaboration as various affordances of technology were perceived and actualised to sustain “business as usual”.

在 COVID-19 期间团队协作和强制在家工作的可供性视角

摘要 COVID-19 给我们的生活带来了前所未有的挑战。许多政府迫使人们呆在家里,导致许多知识工作者从现场协作到虚拟协作的根本转变。现有的远程工作文献并未对政府强制在家工作的情况提供全面的解释。本研究使用可供性视角,探讨 COVID-19 带来的突发性和强制性问题,以及知识工作者用来实现团队协作目标的技术手段。我们采访了 29 名知识工作者,了解他们被要求在家工作的经历,并介绍了“强制在家工作”一词。本文通过提供对 COVID-19 期间团队协作替代可供性的理解,为可供性理论做出贡献。
