How to regain a sense of control over your schedule when you're working from home, according to swhitbo
According to the theoretical framework offered by what’s called the Conservation of Resources model , NWS createby threatening you with threat of a resource loss, actual resources losses, and loss of the potential to gain after investing your resources. The original theory focused on resources associated strictly with work, or occupational stress, and in so doing, missed the mark in the view of the Canadian authors.
Using a national sample based in Canada, the University of Montreal researchers administered a series of work- and family-related questionnaires to 9,150 parents of children aged 0 to 5, 29% of whom had a NWS. The sample was about equally split between males and females, most were in their 30s, and they were parents, on average, to 1.38 children in the home.
Taking these controls into account, and testing a model that related a NWS to health, work-family conflict, and strain to parenting quality and health, the authors found support for their study’s predictions about the problems created when work occurs at nonstandard times. The “proximal” associations, they note, are due to lack of a consistent work-life balance set of policies from their employers along with lack of outside social support.
1. Recall the underlying assumptions of the conservation of resources model that stress is partly in the mind of the individual. With an immovable set of work demands, you can still reduce the perceived threats to your mental resources associated with your work-from-home life. Changing the perception of stress from a threat to a challenge is the first step toward successful coping.
