Background: Digitization has enhanced humans' connectivity with technology, shifting office labour to the home. Unexpected changes in the workplace have affected female productivity. Aims: To understand systematically the impact of remote work on the work productivity of employees in different working professions. Method: This paper uses a PRISMA-model literature review from Scopus and Web of Science database from 2018 to 2023. 12 duplicate papers were deleted, 46 were selected for systematic review based on work-from-home productivity and gender-related characteristics. Result: Vocational psychologists have seen improvements in work efficiency and lower distraction while working at home Later studies indicated mixed productivity effects. Flexibility, shorter commutes, and autonomy improve production, while professionals with children at home produce less. Discussion: This paper didn't review keyword-rich papers. The paper's findings highlight remote workers' productivity. Isolation and burnout lowered productivity. Students’cyber bullied professors. During COVID, remote workers' digital illiteracy was a problem. The paper reviews work-from-home productivity impacts and determinants. Work-from-home psychological implications aren't discussed.
