Abstract

This study analyses the experiences of increased digitalisation and reduced business travel at the Department of Urban and Rural Development (SOL) at SLU during the COVID-19 pandemic. By answering which digital arrangements have worked well, worse or better than their physical counterparts, the report can be used as a basis for work and travel policies at SLU and other higher education institutions. At the same time, we believe that the gathered empirical data may contribute to reflections on the social aspects emerging from digital work, in particular on group belonging, unequal access to digital solutions and general well-being. This report is a follow-up of a similar study conducted in 2020 and offers comparisons between different points in time during the pandemic.
