Abstract
The concept of remote employee engagement refers to the degree to which employees who work remotely or off-site are actively involved in their team, their work tasks, and the overall organization. The enduring nature of remote work, a phenomenon that has experienced a notable rise in prevalence, is anticipated. Nevertheless, it is crucial to recognize that this particular approach to work may have adverse consequences for productivity levels and the overall performance of the organization. One of the main contributing factors to this phenomenon is that employees who engage in remote work frequently encounter a feeling of detachment from their respective organizations. The primary aim of this study is to determine effective approaches for promoting employee engagement in the context of a remote working team. The study is conducted using secondary data sources. The implementation of various employee engagement strategies can be beneficial for remote working teams. These strategies include establishing a robust communication infrastructure, cultivating a sense of community, promoting adaptability, recognizing achievements, and implementing reward systems.
