Abstract

Ovaj rad bavi se temom balansa privatne i poslovne sfere tijekom rada od kuće za vrijeme lockdovna, a naglaskom na rodnim razlikama. Tematskom analizom transkripata intervjua dobili smo uvid u iskustva sudionika i sudionica tijekom lockdowna i rada od kuće. Rezultati su pokazali da među sudionicima postoji egalitarna podjela kada su u pitanju kućanski poslovi i briga o djeci. Na oba područja nije bilo promjene u odnosu na razdoblje prije i poslije lockdowna. Za rad od kuće i kućanske poslove sudionici izjavljuju kako je vrijeme potrebno za obavljanje navedenog ostalo nepromijenjeno, no neki od sudionika izjavili su kako im je na brigu o djeci odlazilo više vremena. Dio sudionika smatraju kako je postojala neravnoteža privatne i poslovne sfere za vrijeme lockdowna. Ipak istraživanje je pokazalo kako su sudionici neravnotežu prevladala većom organizacijom i dogovorom s parterom ili partnericom. Nema vidljivih rodnih razlika u strategijama balansiranja. Možemo reći kako je lockdowna pokazao otpornost i prilagodljivost pojedinaca, ali i partnera zajedno.

Abstract (english)

This paper deals with the topic of the work-life balance while working from home during the lockdown, with an emphasis on gender differences. Through the thematic analysis of the interview transcripts, we gained insight into the experiences of the participants during the lockdown and working from home. The results showed that there is an egalitarian division among the participants when it comes to household chores and childcare. In both areas, there was no change compared to the period before and after the lockdown. For working from home and household chores, the participants stated that the time needed to do the above remained unchanged, but some of the participants stated that they spent more time on childcare. Therefore, some of the participants believe that there was an imbalance between the private and business spheres during the lockdown. However, the research showed that the participants overcame the imbalance with greater organization and an agreement with their partner. There are no visible gender differences in balancing strategies. We can say that the lockdown showed the resilience and adaptability of individuals, but also of partners together.
