Resumo: | The aim of this research was to understand the impacts that working from home during the COVID-19 quarantine period had on the work-family conflict for Brazilian female workers. To reach the objective, fourteen professionals with different family arrangements, were interviewed. All the interviewees reported work overload due to organizational requirements, and the demands placed on them by their children and the home. Despite this, it is worth noting that, according to the testimonies, this work overload did not intensify the work-family conflict for all or them, contrary to what is claimed in the literature. Some interviewees stated that working from home brought them closer to their children and husbands, and provided more time for physical and leisure activities. This finding can contribute towards broadening the debate on work--family conflict, by postulating that it is not only time, pressure and behavior that are the sources of this conflict, but also the physical distance that the hours spent working away from the home imposes. |

Para alcanzar el objetivo se entrevistaron catorce profesionales, con diferentes arreglos familiares. Todas las entrevistadas relataron sobrecarga laboral debido a las exigencias organizativas, obligaciones con sus hijos y con el hogar. A pesar de ello, cabe señalar que, según los testimonios, para ninguna de ellas la sobrecarga laboral dificultó la administración de la relación trabajo-familia, al contrario de lo previsto en la literatura. Algunas entrevistadas afirmaron que trabajar en el hogar las acercó a sus hijos y maridos y les proporcionó más tiempo para actividades físicas y de recreación. Este hallazgo puede contribuir a ampliar el debate sobre la relación trabajo-familia, a menudo conflictiva, al postular que no solo el tiempo, la presión y el comportamiento son fuentes de ese conflicto, sino también la distancia física impuesta por las horas dedicadas al trabajo fuera del hogar.Esta pesquisa objetivou compreender os impactos que a adoção do home office, no período da quarentena da Covid-19, teve no conflito trabalho-família vivida por trabalhadoras brasileiras. Para alcançar o objetivo, foram entrevistadas 14 profissionais com diferentes arranjos familiares. Todas as entrevistadas relataram sobrecarga de trabalho devido às exigências organizacionais, às demandas com os filhos e com a casa. Apesar disso, cabe destacar que, de acordo com os depoimentos, a sobrecarga de trabalho não intensificou o conflito trabalho-família para todas, o que vai na contramão do previsto na literatura. Algumas entrevistadas alegaram que o home office aproximou-as dos filhos e maridos e propiciou mais tempo para atividade físicas e de lazer. Tal achado pode contribuir para ampliar o debate sobre o conflito trabalho-família, muitas vezes conflituosa, ao postular que não apenas o tempo, a pressão e o comportamento são fontes deste conflito, mas também a distância física que as horas dedicadas ao trabalho fora de casa requerem.RAE - Revista de Administracao de Empresas RAE - Revista de Administração de EmpresasRAE-Revista de Administração de Empresas2020-12-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/ojs/index.php/rae/article/view/8291210.1590/S0034-759020200603RAE - Revista de Administracao de Empresas ; Vol. 60 No. 6 (2020): November-December; 388-399RAE - Revista de Administração de Empresas; Vol. 60 Núm. 6 (2020): novembro-dezembro; 388-399RAE-Revista de Administração de Empresas; v. 60 n. 6 (2020): novembro-dezembro; 388-3992178-938X0034-7590reponame:Revista de Administração de Empresasinstname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporenghttps://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/ojs/index.php/rae/article/view/82912/78863https://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/ojs/index.php/rae/article/view/82912/78864Copyright (c) 2020 RAE-Revista de Administração de Empresasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessda Costa Lemos, Ana Heloísa de Oliveira Barbosa, Alane Pinheiro Monzato, Priscila 2020-12-23T21:37:38Zoai:bibliotecadigital.fgv.br:article/82912Revistahttps://rae.fgv.br/raeONGhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phprae@fgv.br||ilda.fontes@fgv.br||raeredacao@fgv.br2178-938X0034-7590opendoar:2020-12-23T21:37:38Revista de Administração de Empresas - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)false |
