    Este estudio examinó el impacto de la pandemia de COVID-19 entre personal esencial no sanitario mediante el examen de la percepción de demandas y recursos laborales en los conflictos entre el trabajo, familia y bienestar psicológico. Usamos el modelo Recursos Trabajo-Demandas para examinar las variables de estudio. Este es la fase inicial de un estudio longitudinal aún en proceso. Un total de 161 participantes han participado de la primera fase base presentada en este trabajo. Examinamos:

    demandas laborales relacionadas con COVID-19, recursos organizacionales y personales, malestar psicológico general, ansiedad y depresión. Usamos PLS-SEM para probar la hipótesis del estudio. Los resultados preliminares de la primera fase de este estudio aún en curso sugieren que las demandas laborales de COVID-19 tuvieron relaciones positivas y significativas con el conflicto trabajo-familia, ansiedad y depresión, pero una relación negativa y significativa con el malestar psicológico general. Mientras tanto, los recursos personales solo mediaron significativamente la relación entre demandas laborales relacionadas con COVID- 19 y depresión (EI = -.061, p = .028). Las demandas relacionadas con COVID-19 tuvieron efectos significativos en todas las variables del estudio, particularmente en el conflicto trabajo-familia. Los recursos personales solo mediaron la relación entre las demandas laborales de COVID-19 y depresión.

    This study examined the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on essential non-health care workers by examining perception of job demands and resources and its impact on work-family conflict and psychological well-being. We used the Job-Demands Resources model to examine the study variables. This is the first phase of an ongoing longitudinal study. A convenience sample of 161 essential non-health care workers participated in the baseline phase presented in this study. We developed three questionnaires to measure: 1) COVID-related work demands, 2) organizational, and 3) personal resources based on the Job Demands-Resources model, and 4) work-family conflict due to COVID-19. We also measured general psychological distress, anxiety, and depressive symptomatology. We conducted partial least squares structural equation modeling to test the hypotheses. Preliminary baseline results suggest that COVID-19 work demands had positive and significant relations to work family-conflict, anxiety, and depression, but it had a negative and significant relation to general psychological distress. Meanwhile, personal resources only significantly mediated the relationship between COVID-19 related work demands and depression (IE = -.061, p = .028). Findings suggest that COVID-19-related demands had significant effects on all study dependent variables, particularly work-family conflict. Personal resources only mediated relationship between COVID-19 work demands and depression.
