Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive overview of the impact of smart working on sustainability. By highlighting the challenges and opportunities associated with optimizing the use of energy resources and promoting sustainable behaviors within organizational contexts, this research aims to shed light on the multifaceted impacts that smart working practices can have on environmental sustainability. A goaloriented work organization, with flexible schedules and locations, indeed brings benefits not only to organizations but also to the environment. This study attempts to outline practical recommendations aimed at promoting the implementation of remote work practices that significantly contribute to a more sustainable future. These inquiries seek to unveil the current breadth and depth of research in the field of smart working and sustainability, identify influential figures and seminal works that shape this discourse, and track the evolution of keywords and thematic elements in relation to the outlined topics. Therefore, the authors have formulated specific research inquiries guiding the bibliometric study: What is the current scope and depth of research concerning the correlation between smart working and sustainability? Who are the influential authors and pivotal articles in this field? How have the keywords and thematic elements evolved concerning our outlined topics? Some responses stem from our scrutiny of existing literature on sustainability, while others derive from broader academic works or practical discourse. Our analysis confirms the escalating interest in this subject and marks an initial exploratory phase in the literature study, there-by charting the course for future research endeavors.
