Abstract

The business environment has undergone radical shifts toward flexible work models, most notably the hybrid work system. This research aims to explore the impact of this system on performance efficiency within tourism companies in Baghdad. The study adopted a descriptive-analytical approach, collecting data via a questionnaire distributed to a purposive sample of (50) employees. Descriptive results indicated high acceptance and support for the flexibility and collaboration provided by the hybrid system, with a relative importance exceeding 81%. However, regression and correlation analyses revealed a weak negative relationship, where increased reliance on hybrid work led to a slight decline in performance efficiency (R² = 0.115). This is attributed to the specific nature of the Iraqi tourism sector, which requires continuous direct interaction, as well as employee concerns regarding job security. The research recommends adopting more structured hybrid models and providing a supportive technical and administrative environment to mitigate negative effects and enhance productivity
