To maximize employee motivation, the researcher aims to examine how the onsite work and hybrid work affect employee motivation in Thailand. An online questionnaire, adapted from the multidimensional work motivation scale, was utilized as the primary tool for data collection. The researcher gathered and analyzed responses from 400 questionnaires using statistical methods, including t-tests, ANOVA, and MANOVA. The result indicated that the work conditions do not have an impact on employee motivation at a significant 0.05 level. However, results indicate that access to a dedicated workspace positively contributes to the motivation of hybrid employees. Additionally, marital status was found to affect motivation, with single hybrid employees reporting higher motivation levels than married hybrid and married onsite employees. These findings suggest that employers should ensure that all employees receive equitable benefits without presuming that one group is more motivated than another.
