JIMENEZ-FIGUEROA, Andrés  y  BERRIOS RIQUELME, Anaelle. Telework, Work-Family Conflict and Mental Burden in Private Sector Workers in Chile. Revista de Psicologia [online]. 2022, n.27, pp.95-108. ISSN 2223-3032.  https://doi.org/10.53287/oipi3168sv46c.

The present study has as its objective to describe the existing relationship between remote work, mental burden and work-family conflict. The questionnaires "Remote Work Perception Scale" (Ossa, Jiménez & Gómez, 2020), "Mental Burden Scale" (Ceballos, Paravic, Burgos & Barriga, 2014) and "Work-family Conflict Questionnaire" (Carlson, Kacmar & Williams, 2000)were administered via online to 102 private sector workers in Chile who are working remotely. Negative relationships between remote work and work-family conflict were observed (r= -.572, p= .000), and between remote work and mental burden (r= -.307, p= .002). While there is a positive relationship between mental burden and work-family conflict (r= .360, p= .000). It is concluded that remote work has an influence on the areas of mental burden and work-family conflict in the same manner that this variables have an influence on remote work, so that the support of organisational, technological and interpersonal resources on one of these areas by the organisation can be beneficial for the organisational politics and the workers' life.
