This survey research aims to analyze the factors that influence, as well as test differences in the subjective well-being of the families of women health workers during the Covid-19 pandemic, according to the two types of working time (Stable and shift). This study involved 110 families (47 stable and 63 shift working hours) from Jabodetabek area, which was selected by non-probability random sampling. Data were collected in April 2020. The results showed that women health workers with stable working hours had significantly higher subjective well-being, financial management, and marriage satisfaction, but otherwise had lower husband-wife interactions and work and family problems than women with shift working hours. The results of the main regression model showed that family well-being was influenced positively by coping strategies, marital satisfaction, and husband's education. Meanwhile, the derivative regression model that analyzes the variable components showed that family well-being was influenced positively by a component of marriage satisfaction, a component of family interaction, implementation of family time management, and husband's education; but negatively influenced by family income and husband's age. In general, the family of women health workers during the Covid-19 pandemic was expected to develop various efforts to increase marriage satisfaction and the family's subjective well-being.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact on family well-being. The impact will depend on how the family manages stress during an unstable situation such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The study aimed to analyze the effect of family and work characteristics, sources of stress, coping strategies, and stress symptoms on the subjective well-being of families. This study uses an online questionnaire as a data collection tool. Data collection was carried out in DKI Jakarta that involved 100 health workers (60 health professionals and 40 health support personnel). Processing and analyzing data use Microsoft Office Excel 2016, SPSS 25.0, and SmartPLS 3.3.2. Data analysis performed were descriptive, independent sample t-test, and SEM analysis. According to the results, health support workers are more likely to feel the source of problems due to change and work compared to professional health workers. The lower stressor and stress symptoms increase the family’s subjective well-being. Furthermore, stressor and stress symptoms are intermediate variable that affects subjective family well-being. The results of this study can be used as a consideration for intervention for related parties in the event of a new pandemic situation in the future.
