Scholars made clear that daily job and home crafting can optimize employees' well-being, also when teleworking. Since telework is largely characterized by a constant juggle between work and home roles, we need knowledge on how teleworkers can combine job and home crafting during the day. While previous studies have almost exclusively applied an enrichment-based perspective, which assumes that daily job and home crafting can be combined unlimitedly, the current study proposes an effort-based perspective, which assumes that crafting requires effort and, therefore, can only be done within certain limits. Using a daily diary study (N = 839 days nested within 202 full-time teleworkers), we investigate whether daily approach job and home crafting can prevent daily energy depletion. Moreover, we predict that equally allocating efforts across daily approach job and home crafting is related to the lowest levels of energy depletion. Multilevel polynomial regression analyses showed that daily approach job and home crafting were negatively related to daily energy depletion. As an important exception to this general finding, the combination of high approach job and home crafting was related to higher energy depletion and should be avoided. Finally, our results indicated that, in general, allocating efforts to approach job crafting is more useful than allocating efforts to approach home crafting.

远程办公时手工艺:关于工作和家庭手工艺组合及其与能量消耗关系的每日日记研究
学者们明确表示,日常工作和家庭手工艺品可以优化员工的幸福感,远程办公时也是如此。由于远程办公的主要特点是在工作和家庭角色之间不断兼顾,我们需要了解远程工作人员如何在白天将工作和家庭工作结合起来。虽然以前的研究几乎完全采用基于丰富的观点,假设日常工作和家庭手工可以无限结合,但目前的研究提出了一种基于努力的观点,假设手工需要努力,因此只能完成在一定范围内。我们使用每日日记研究(N = 839 天嵌套在 202 名全职远程工作人员中),调查日常工作和家庭手工是否可以防止日常能量消耗。而且,我们预测,在日常工作和家庭手工中平均分配精力与最低水平的能量消耗有关。多级多项式回归分析表明,日常工作和家庭手工与日常能量消耗呈负相关。作为这一普遍发现的一个重要例外,高度接近的工作和家庭手工的结合与更高的能量消耗有关,应该避免。最后,我们的结果表明,一般来说,分配精力来处理工作重塑比分配精力来处理家庭重塑更有用。作为这一普遍发现的一个重要例外,高度接近的工作和家庭手工的结合与更高的能量消耗有关,应该避免。最后,我们的结果表明,一般来说,分配精力来处理工作重塑比分配精力来处理家庭重塑更有用。作为这一普遍发现的一个重要例外,高度接近的工作和家庭手工的结合与更高的能量消耗有关,应该避免。最后,我们的结果表明,一般来说,分配精力来处理工作重塑比分配精力来处理家庭重塑更有用。
