Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to analyze how an individual's choice of activity changes when teleworking is spread. In particular, individual choices are investigated and analyzed for each activity as to which activity replaces the commuting time saved by the expansion of remote work, and how these choices differ depending on the presence or absence of remote activity experience. In addition, the factors affecting the choice of each activity are analyzed along with the characteristics of not only telecommuting experience and work environment, but also personal, household, and occupational characteristics, as well as the characteristics of residence and work environment. As a result, it was found that the choice of alternative activities according to the activation of telecommuting is influenced more by the characteristics of individuals, households, and commuting than by the characteristics of the workplace and occupation. In addition, it was found that the increase in academic, self-development, and housework (parenting) activities was markedly higher for those who experienced remote work compared to those without experience. Furthermore, the increase in the number of teleworking days per week leads to an increase in shopping and work activities in individual activity choice when considering individual, household, and occupational characteristics.

인간은 활동을 통해 삶에 필요한 것들을 채워 나가지만, 시공간적 제약으로 인해 원하는 모든 활동에 참여할 수 없다. 다양한 시공간적 제약 중 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요인은 거주지와 직장의 위치를 포함한 통근과 관련된 특성이며, 최근 코로나-19 등으로 인해 촉발된 원격근무의 활발한 도입은 이러한 제약을 일부 완화시켜주어 개인의 활동선택에도 영향을 미치게 된다. 따라서 본 연구는 개인의 활동선택이 원격근무의 활성화에 따라 어떻게 변화하는지 탐색하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 특히, 원격근무 확대 시 절약된 통근시간에 어떠한 활동에 참여할지에 대한 설문조사 자료를 활용하였고, 이항로지스틱분석과 잠재계층군집분석을 활용하여 개인, 가구, 통근 통행, 직장 및 직업, 공간적 특성 및 원격근무 특성에 따라 개인의 개별 대체 활동선택과 대체활동 묶음 선택이 어떻게 달라지는지 확인하였다. 그 결과, 실내여가, 학업 및 자기계발 그리고 가족과의 시간의 비중이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 원격근무 경험이 있는 사람일수록 실외 활동보다는 실내 대체활동(실내여가 및 가사-육아) 선택 비중이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 6가지 대체활동 묶음 유형을 도출하였으며, 이들 중 가족과의 집안활동 중심형(29.3%)과 학업 및 가족과의 여가활동 병행형(20.5%)의 비중이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 다양한 설명변수 중 직업 및 직장의 특성보다는 개인, 가구, 통근통행 특성들이 미치는 영향이 더 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 주중 원격근무일수의 증가는 여가-학업형의 증가와 관련 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 가구를 모델링 단위로 하는 활동기반 교통수요 분석의 기본 가정과 부합하며, 미래 통행수요 변화를 예측하는데 활동에 기반한 이해가 필요하다는 점을 시사하는 결과라 할 수 있다.
