However, not all employees exhibit the same level of adaptation and performance while carrying out their tasks outside the organization's premises. In this scenario, multicriteria decision analysis emerges as a tool to support the decision-making process in prioritizing employees with the best profile for carrying out telecommuting activities. Objective: To create a multicriteria decision model for ranking in the selection of employees for a call center company based in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, for remote work from home. Methods: A case study was conducted, incorporating the application of Value-Focused Thinking (VFT), a questionnaire, and the development of the decision model using the FITradeoff method. The choice is based on the concepts of flexible elicitation from the FITradeoff method (Flexible and Interactive Tradeoff). FITradeoff is a method for eliciting scale constants created in accordance with the scope of the Multi-Attribute Value Theory (MAVT). Results: The model was able to provide support information for ranking employees with the best profiles for transitioning from on-site work to remote work, based on consistent prioritization criteria, aiding decision-makers in justifying the chosen selection. Conclusions: It was possible to rank the best profiles for transitioning work arrangements and gain an understanding of how employees perceive remote work.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/10519815251320037","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,28]],"date-time":"2025-02-28T03:27:43Z","timestamp":1740713263000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Multicriteria decision model for ranking the performance of remote work activities: Case study in a call center company in Brazil"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"given":"Aleson Belo","family":"da Silva","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Production Engineering, Technology Center, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, RN, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Amanda Braga","family":"Marques","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Production Engineering, Technology Center, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, RN, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jo\u00e3o Flor\u00eancio","family":"da Costa Junior","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Production Engineering, Technology Center, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, RN, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ricardo Pires","family":"de Souza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Production Engineering, Technology Center, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, RN, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-10519815251320037","first-page":"182","volume":"12","author":"Leodir LM","year":"2006","journal-title":"Read - Revista eletr\u00f4nica de administra\u00e7\u00e3o [online]"},{"key":"bibr2-10519815251320037","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1201\/b11032"},{"key":"bibr3-10519815251320037","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.15600\/1679-5350\/rau.v3n2p109-131"},{"key":"bibr4-10519815251320037","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-1-4757-2500-1"},{"key":"bibr5-10519815251320037","volume-title":"Processo de Decis\u00e3o Nas Organiza\u00e7\u00f5es: Construindo modelos de decis\u00e3o multicrit\u00e9rio","author":"De Almeida AT","edition":"1"},{"key":"bibr6-10519815251320037","unstructured":"Stoner JA, Freeman RE.
