The increase of women's labor force participation, the diversity of
family constellations, many men's increased participation in
childcare, and the development of flexible working arrangements
have stimulated research on the relationship between work and
non-work. In this thesis, the interaction between work and non-work
is examined in the case of home-based telework, an example of
flexible working arrangement. Because of the disappearance or
blurring of the traditional boundaries in time and space, the
consequences of these working conditions for individuals need to be
analyzed. The overall aim of this thesis was to study the
interaction between work and non-work in home-based telework and to
analyze the following issues: - conflict versus facilitation as
related to the segmentation and integration of work/non-work
domains - the nature and role of boundaries - the physical and
mental aspects of work activities within the domains. The results
show the importance of boundaries, as they are needed in order to
bring structure and legitimacy to the work (carried out in the
home/private domain) and to detach from work.
