Resumen
THIS ARTICLE ANALYZES THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE INTERACTION BETWEEN PAID AND UNPAID WORK FOR CHILEAN WOMEN WHO, SINCE THE HEALTH CRISIS CAUSED BY COVID-19, HAVE HAD TO START WORKING FROM THEIR HOMES. METHODOLOGY. WE WORKED WITH A MIXED ONLINE QUESTIONNAIRE (N = 1137) APPLIED BETWEEN APRIL AND JUNE 2020. WE PRESENT THE RESPONSES TO THE LIKERT QUESTIONNAIRE AND ANALYZE IN DEPTH THE OPEN QUESTIONS. RESULTS. THE PARTICIPANTS HAVE A NEGATIVE PERCEPTION OF TELEWORK IN A PANDEMIC, SHOWING CONFLICTS IN THE WORK/FAMILY RELATIONSHIP, TIME OVERLOAD, UNBALANCED USE OF SPACES AND LITTLE FAMILY AND WORK CO-RESPONSIBILITY. FINALLY, IT IS POSSIBLE TO RECOGNIZE VARIOUS NARRATIVE RESOURCES OF RESISTANCE TO THE PATRIARCHAL CONSTRUCTION OF GENDER ROLES AND RECOGNITION OF THE SITUATION EXPERIENCED AS AN ISSUE THAT AFFECTS A LARGE NUMBER OF WOMEN IN CHILE. CONCLUSIONS. OUR RESULTS SHOW THE EXISTENCE OF A CONFLICT THAT HAS AFFECTED THE INTERACTION BETWEEN WORK AND FAMILY LIFE OF WOMEN, WHO HAVE HAD TO FACE A SCENARIO OF IMPLEMENTATION OF SOCIAL ISOLATION MEASURES AND A TELEWORK MODALITY CHARACTERIZED BY IMPROVISATION, WHICH HAS FORCED THEM TO FACE THE CRISIS THROUGH THE DEPLOYMENT OF THEIR OWN RESOURCES, SELF-ORGANIZATION CAPACITIES AND INDIVIDUAL LEARNING, WITH HEAVY COSTS FOR THEIR MENTAL HEALTH.
