Teletrabajo, género y conflicto laboral durante la pandemia del Covid-19 en Uruguay

Remote work, implemented as a health measure, revealed and deepened structural inequalities in the organisation of work. This study explores the subjective well-being of those who worked under this modality, analysing differences according to gender and type of contract. A questionnaire with closed and open-ended questions was administered to a purposive sample of individuals from a bureaucratic organisation. Thematic and descriptive frequency analysis shows that women, especially those with precarious employment relations and care responsibilities, faced more unfavourable conditions and reported higher levels of psychological distress. Inequalities in access to resources, overload from reproductive tasks and lack of institutional support had a negative impact on their work experience and well-being
