Teletrabalho e dupla jornada: perspectivas e desafios para a inserção das mulheres no mercado de trabalho

Abstract

This monograph analyzed the relationship between telework and the double workday, with emphasis on the impacts and challenges faced by women. It investigated how remote work affected the balance between professional and domestic activities for female workers, in a context where the sexual division of labor remained unequal. The research adopted a dialectical methodology and sought to answer the following question: "How does telework contribute to the intensification of the double workday between women's professional and domestic responsibilities, and what are the emerging legal challenges for protecting their labor rights in the current labor market context?" To answer this, the study was divided into three chapters. The first analyzed telework and its historical evolution, as well as its regulation in the Brazilian legal system. Additionally, it correlated telework with women's double workday. The second chapter dealt with the physical and emotional challenges generated for women as a result of telework and the accumulation of tasks. In the last chapter, the monograph sought to address proposals that aim to enforce women's rights in telework, reaching the conclusion that it is necessary to revise legislation to provide greater protection regarding the right to disconnect. Finally, it was concluded that although remote work has opened new possibilities for labor insertion, it also reinforced pre-existing inequalities when not accompanied by cultural and institutional transformations that promote gender equity in both public and private spheres
