The COVID-19 pandemic forced information workers across the world to work from home. This situation removes the physical boundary between work and home, impacting their work-life balance. How information workers configure the digital workplace (DWP) to manage their workplace boundaries and what effect this has on their individual job satisfaction remains unclear. To close this gap in the literature, 202 information workers completed an online survey. The findings partially confirm existing theory that more work flexibility increases job satisfaction while more work permeability decreases job satisfaction. However, depending on the flexibility and permeability of their work-home boundaries, the frequency with which information workers use DWP tools has cross-over effects on job satisfaction. The findings contribute to boundary theory and the new stream of digital workplace literature.

COVID-19 大流行迫使世界各地的信息工作者在家工作。这种情况消除了工作和家庭之间的物理界限，影响了他们的工作与生活平衡。信息工作者如何配置数字工作场所 (DWP) 以管理他们的工作场所边界以及这对他们个人工作满意度的影响仍不清楚。为了弥补文献中的这一空白，202 名信息工作者完成了一项在线调查。调查结果部分证实了现有理论，即更多的工作灵活性会增加工作满意度，而更多的工作渗透性会降低工作满意度。然而，根据工作-家庭边界的灵活性和渗透性，信息工作者使用 DWP 工具的频率对工作满意度有交叉影响。
