Summary/Abstract: The Covid-19 pandemic has seen working from home become a growing trend.The key goal of this article is to check whether the inhabitants of Slovenia support the idea of working from home. Based on relevant literature, the consequences of working from home are first presented and classified by the areas where they occur (organisations, individuals and families; society and space). The attitude to the consequences is checked according to statistical data on value orientation derived from Slovenian public opinion polls. Since most of the impacts indicate that working from home brings personal benefits for individuals and their families, it was expected that the value orientation data would reveal that the majority of Slovenians support this work arrangement and hence generally favour working from home.
