ANALYSIS OF WORK-LIFE CONFLICT CONSTRUCT IN CASE OF TELEWORK - A CASE STUDY OF TEACHERS FROM KASHMIR VALLEY (INDIA) DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Abstract

The work family conflict (WFC) as a concept for understanding work-life balance dates back to 1985. Although a number of characterizations have been propounded but the tripartite characterization of time¬- based, strain-based and behavior-based conflict is favored and has achieved greater currency. This study seeks to analyze the nature of WFC in case of telework. The case of online teaching in Kashmir valley during the Covid-19 pandemic is taken up in this study. The experience of conflict between work and life is also assessed with regards to different demographics.
