Abstract(s)
O acentuado aumento do recurso ao teletrabalho, em exclusividade ou em modo
híbrido, numa fase pandémica e, contemporaneamente, pós pandémica, veio alterar a forma
como se perspetiva o trabalho, como o organizamos e apreendemos as suas potenciais
implicações multinível. Esta crescente centralidade do trabalho remoto tem estimulado
questões científicas importantes, relativas aos impactos destes novos cenários ocupacionais,
nomeadamente, na relação do trabalho, agora realizado num enquadramento físico e social
distinto, com a família e com indicadores de saúde e bem-estar dos trabalhadores.
A presente investigação, na sua componente empírica, incide na análise de dados de
uma amostra de 101 participantes válidos, dos quais 54 são relativas a participantes homens
e 47 a mulheres. Foram utilizados, no presente estudo, os instrumentos Brief Symptom
Inventory (BSI-18) e Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire – II (COPSOQ-II). Os
resultados principais indicam uma associação estatisticamente significativa entre o conflito
trabalho-família e a sintomatologia depressiva, onde pessoas com níveis mais elevados de
sintomatologia depressiva apresentam mais conflito trabalho-família (e vice-versa). Também
foi possível verificar que a variável género interagiu com a sintomatologia depressiva,
revelando um efeito moderador na relação entre estas variáveis, sendo que este efeito apenas
ocorreu nas mulheres. Os resultados da presente investigação contribuem para o
aprofundamento da compreensão da dinâmica entre sintomatologia depressiva e conflito
trabalho-família, em adultos ocupacionalmente ativos, em regime de teletrabalho, e para o
aprofundar do papel do género como moderador desta relação. Esta investigação permite,
assim, analisar especificidades relativas ao género no trabalho remoto e implicações
psicossociais para a organização remota do trabalho, facultando-se considerações
conclusivas no sentido da promoção do bem-estar, tanto ao nível profissional quanto ao nível
das interações ocupacionais com domínios extraprofissionais.
The significant increase in the use of telework, either exclusively or in a hybrid mode, during the pandemic phase and, contemporaneously, in the post-pandemic phase, has changed the way we view work, how we organize it, and how we understand its potential multi-level implications. This growing centrality of remote work has stimulated important scientific questions regarding the impacts of these new occupational scenarios, particularly in relation to work now conducted in a distinct physical and social framework, with family and with indicators of health and well-being of workers. The present research, in its empirical component, focuses on the analysis of data from a sample of 101 valid participants, of which 54 are men and 47 are women. The instruments used in this study were the Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI-18) and the Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire – II (COPSOQ-II). The main results indicate a statistically significant association between work-family conflict and depressive symptoms, where people with higher levels of depressive symptoms experience more work-family conflict (and vice versa). It was also possible to verify that the gender variable interacted with depressive symptoms, revealing a moderating effect on the relationship between these variables, with this effect occurring only in women. The results of the present research contribute to a deeper understanding of the dynamics between depressive symptoms and work-family conflict in occupationally active adults working remotely, and to further understanding the role of gender as a moderator of this relationship. This investigation thus allows for the analysis of gender-specific aspects in remote work and the psychosocial implications for the remote organization of work, providing conclusive considerations aimed at promoting well-being, both professionally and in terms of occupational interactions with extraprofessional domains.
