L’objectif de cette étude était de chercher à savoir si le conflit travail-famille (CTF) et/ou le conflit famille-travail (CFT) médiaient la relation entre les caractéristiques du lieu de travail et la santé générale et la satisfaction au travail dans un échantillon de travailleurs travaillant à domicile (TAD) dans un contexte recommandé/obligatoire en raison des mesures COVID-19.

Objective  To investigate whether work–family conflict (WFC) and/or family–work conflict (FWC) mediated the relationship between workplace characteristics and general health and job satisfaction in a sample of workers working from home (WFH) in a recommended/mandatory context due to COVID-19 measures. Methods  Data were collected via online questionnaire as part of the Employees Working from Home study. Analyses in this paper utilised data collected at two time points six months apart, including 965 complete responses from the first questionnaire and 451 complete responses from the second questionnaire. Results  Relationships between predictor and outcome variables were in the directions expected, and both WFC and FWC mediated these relationships. Conclusions  Work–life interaction partly explains the relationship between work characteristics and general health and job satisfaction health in a population undertaking involuntary WFH.
