Abstract

The permanent shift to remote and hybrid work has changed the Occupational Safety and Health (OHS) landscape, with the emergence of new risks in home environments that often do not meet occupational safety standards. This study aims to map the physical and psychosocial risks experienced by remote workers in the post-pandemic era as a basis for occupational safety interventions. The study used a Scoping Review method based on PRISMA-ScR guidelines with an analysis of 13 articles from Google Scholar and PubMed for the period 2021–2025. The results showed two main risks: physical risks in the form of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and eye strain due to poor ergonomics and lack of movement, and psychosocial risks such as unlimited working hours, digital surveillance, and social isolation. Psychological stress has also been shown to exacerbate physical pain. Therefore, organizations are advised to implement occupational safety policies such as ergonomic subsidies and “Right to Disconnect” rules to mitigate these risks.
