Abstract

Work from Home (WFH) has formed a new work culture in Indonesia since the Covid-19 pandemic. Positive and negative impacts are also felt during WFH. Especially for working mothers who are faced with domestic affairs and work in the same space and time. A study on 385 respondents of working mothers in Indonesia showed the effect of WFH on Work-Life-Balance (WLB). Flexibility at work time and place is the main factor that gets a positive assessment of working mothers. However, cultural views on the main role of women in the household can weaken the effectiveness of WFH implementation. The difficulty of dividing time between family and work makes more than half of respondents disagree if WFH continues to be implemented even though the pandemic is over. Further research is needed to analyse other factors that influence WLB during WFH.
