Abstract
A primary objective of organizational virtual work programs (e.g., providing the option to employees to work from home) is the reduction of employees'workโnonwork conflict and job stress. In this study, we find some preliminary evidence suggesting that virtual work is negatively related to workโnonwork conflict and job stress. We identify the work factors (clarity of appraisal criteria, interpersonal trust, and organizational connectedness) and individual factors (selfโefficacy and ability to structure the workday) associated with workโnonwork conflict and find that these associations are moderated by the extent of virtual work. ยฉ 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
