Summary/Abstract: This paper aimed to identify external and internal factors that influence the willingness to work remotely. The study employed a quantitative approach, utilizing the CAWI technique alongside an online survey. A total of 152 young adults participated in the research, and the data collected was analyzed using Statistica software. The study took place between February and April 2025. Eight variables relating to external factors that may affect the willingness to work remotely were examined. Additionally, the impact of nine characteristics and skills of respondents, — based on the Belbin concept of team roles — on preferences for remote work was analyzed. The findings indicate that external factors play a more significant role in influencing the willingness to work remotely, with the most notable factors being the opportunity for independent prioritization of work duties and time savings. Statistical analysis, employing the chi-square test, revealed a significant relationship between the assessment of remote learning and the declared willingness to work in this manner. This relationship was characterized by high strength and a positive direction, as confirmed by the Spearman rank correlation coefficient. The study offers insights for employers, aiding in the planning of work organization in light of future employment models.
