Conciliación trabajo-familia con y sin niños y niñas, durante el confinamiento por COVID-19 en México

Abstract

Palabras clave: conciliación trabajo-familia, COVID-19, división sexual del trabajo, género, madres trabajadoras As a health policy for COVID-19, the confinement's implementation transformed the home beyond family life into the workplace and school. Online work broke into personal life resulting in the entanglement of duties, grueling work hours, unfavorable institutional policies to reconcile work-family, and hostility from co-workers, all of which triggered stress and frustration in workers, mainly in fathers/mothers. For women with children, the risk of unemployment increased three times. [...]this confinement triggered, without planning it, a social experiment that allows us to see some of the effects of the work-family conflict and the difficulty WFR implies in the face of the abrupt and massive implementation of policies according to the neoliberal model. Lo que en definitiva reduce sus posibilidades de desarrollo profesional, descanso, deporte, aficiones, reuniones, esparcimiento y salud;además de ponerlas en mayor riesgo de tener jornadas parciales y en condiciones más precarizadas (Sabater, 2014).
