El teletrabajo durante la pandemia de Covid-19 en la región del Alto Valle

Abstract

The aim of this research was to describe teleworking during the Covid-19 pandemic in the Alto Valle region. To achieve this, four lines of study were defined: 1) the sociodemographic and behavioral characterization of teleworkers, 2) change at the personal-leisure-work level, 3) motivational factors, and 4) telework and gender. The data was collected through an online survey, the sample was non-probabilistic, for convenience. A total of 319 cases were analyzed. The profile of teleworkers was mostly female, with a university study, corresponding to the age range between 27 and 39 years, and residents of General Roca. In the personal-leisure-family changes, most clearly identify a reduction in costs and that the time saved in commuting to work is now for the family. On the other hand, a good salary was identified as the main motivational factor. Finally, a statistical significance was detected (p = 0.0025), female teleworkers consider save time by not commuting as an advantage while for men is the flexible hours.
