A dyadic approach to addressing the unmet needs of caregiving dyads : analysis of the inclusiveness of the slovenian long term care act

Potočnik, Tjaša (author)

Due to a lack of support resources, the nature of family and work settings causes Indian earning couples to experience an imbalance while performing their work and family roles. The study developed and tested a model for investigating the moderation impact of two such social support resources in the workplace – supervisor and co-worker – on the inter-role conflict faced by an Indian earning couple. Data were collected and analysed in relation to 676 members of earning couples from 11 major Indian cities using snowball sampling. An interesting finding is that even though both Work Overload (WO) and Family Overload (FO) contribute significantly as role stressors, the individual variable impact created by WO is less effective than FO on inter-role conflict. Although workplace social support showed a moderating effect on inter-role conflict, on the individual variable level co-worker and supervisor support less effectively moderated the inter-role conflict created by FO compared with WO. Practical implications of the study are outlined with respect to business and future research directions.

• Title: Diadni pristop pri proučevanju nezadovoljenih potreb znotraj oskrbovalne diade

Abstract

Oskrba je diadni odnos, ki vključuje osebo, ki oskrbo prejema, in osebo, ki oskrbo zagotavlja. Da bi preprečili nastanek nezadovoljenih potreb med njima, bi morala politika dolgotrajne oskrbe ustrezno obravnavati potrebe obeh članov diade in tako celostno pristopiti k reševanju vprašanja nezadovoljenih potreb znotraj oskrbovalne diade. V članku analiziram vključenost neformalnih oskrbovalcev ter s tem diadnega pristopa k oskrbi v Zakonu o dolgotrajni oskrbi (ZdOsk-1) v Sloveniji. Ugotavljam, da je Zakon o dolgotrajni oskrbi (ZdOsk-1) osredotočen na prejemnike oskrbe in – razen v primeru pravice do oskrbovalca družinskega člana – ne priznava diadne narave oskrbe.
