摘要

目的描述生活在约旦的妇女在生育第一个新生儿后重返学术岗位工作的经历：设计：定性描述现象学设计：环境：约旦一所公立大学的各个学院。本研究描述了约旦阿拉伯父权制社区背景下学术界女性所经历的挑战：15 名重返学术岗位的女性：方法：对产后 3 个月内重返学术岗位的女性进行非结构化、面对面的深入访谈。采用布劳恩和克拉克的主题分析方法对访谈记录进行分析：结果：出现了三大主题：生活在混乱中、迫切需要过渡时间以及寻求帮助和支持。参与者将重返工作岗位描述为一个充满混乱和不稳定感的时期，在这一时期，他们感到失去了对生活的控制。他们表示，在重新担任全职学术职务之前，迫切需要一个过渡时期，并强调了逐步重返职场的重要性。最后，与会者分享了她们在日常工作中遇到的额外需求。作为职业母亲，学员们在努力履行日常职责的过程中经历了极大的痛苦。她们强调在这一充满挑战的时期缺乏足够的支持：结论：产后重返工作岗位的妇女需要为新生活的变化和责任做好身心准备。较长的产假或过渡时期可能有助于在学术界工作的妇女在履行其职业承诺的同时应对多重母亲角色的要求。这些调查结果表明，缺乏必要的正式政策来支持学术界妇女在休完产假后重返工作岗位。

Experiences of Academic Women in Jordan on Their Return to Work After Childbirth

Objective

To describe the experiences of women living in Jordan returning to work at their academic positions after giving birth to their first newborns.

Design

Qualitative descriptive phenomenological design.

Setting

Various schools within a governmental university in Jordan. This study describes the challenges women in academia experience in the context of Jordan’s Arabic patriarchal communities.

Participants

A purposive sample of 15 women returning to their academic positions.

Methods

Unstructured, face-to-face, in-depth interviews of women returning to their academic positions within 3 months after giving birth to their first newborns. The recorded interviews were analyzed using Braun and Clarke’s thematic analysis process.

Results

Three major themes emerged: Living in Chaos, The Urgent Need for Transitional Time, and Calling for Help and Support. Participants described their return to work as a period marked by a sense of chaos and instability, in which they felt a loss of control over their lives. They expressed a pressing need for a transitional period before resuming full-time academic roles, highlighting the importance of a gradual return. Finally, participants shared their struggles with the extra demands added to their daily routine. As working mothers, participants experienced extreme distress while attempting to fulfill their daily responsibilities. They emphasized the lack of adequate support in this challenging period.

Conclusion

Women returning to their academic work after giving birth to their first newborns need to be prepared physically and emotionally for the changes and responsibilities of their new life. A longer period of maternity leave or a transitional period may help women working in academia to manage the demands of multiple maternal roles alongside their professional commitments. These findings highlight the absence of formal policies needed to support women in academia in their return to work after maternity leave.
