Abstract
This research aimed to analyze the influences of performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, hedonic motivation, price value, and habit on employees' intentions to use technology for hybrid offices. The sample consisted of 360 employees working in Rayong Province’s large-scale SPP electricity generating industry. The data were gathered using a self-administered questionnaire that had undergone validity and reliability testing. Descriptive and inferential statistics, including structural equation modeling (SEM), were used to analyze the data. The findings showed that performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, and habit had a statistically significant influence on employees' intentions to use technology for hybrid office working.
