Anchored on the Job Demands-Resources (JDR) theory, the research adopted a descriptive survey design and analyzed responses from 123 employees using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results indicated that all three hybrid work dimensions significantly predict productivity and wellbeing, with organizational support emerging as the strongest determinant of employee wellbeing. The study concludes that hybrid work can enhance employee outcomes when supported by clear structures, adequate digital tools, and responsive managerial practices.
