The massive incorporation of women to the labour market has increased academic and applied interest on work-life issues throughout the years. This article aims to describe the domestic burden and difficulties in work-life balance (WLB) and to understand the intersection of work and family spheres among hotel housekeepers (HHs). A cross-sectional study was conducted through Primary Health Care in the Balearic Islands (Spain); 1,043 HHs were enrolled. 56.7% reported difficulties in WLB. Risk factors for perceiving difficulties in WLB were: living with someone else (regardless of the number of co-habitants), having difficulties making ends meet, being the main person in charge of domestic tasks, having a dependant, having an external locus of control, presenting higher levels of stress at work, working more hours a week and being younger. Protective factors from experiencing work-family conflict (WFC) were job and wage satisfaction. WFC is strongly influenced by individual, economic, labour and domestic factors: these relationships show that labour and domestic spheres are non-separate worlds.
多年来，大量女性进入劳动力市场，使得学术和应用领域对工作生活问题的兴趣大增。本文旨在描述家庭负担和工作与生活平衡（WLB）方面的困难，并了解酒店管家（HHs）工作和家庭领域的交叉情况。这是一项通过巴利阿里群岛（西班牙）初级保健进行的横断面研究；共纳入 1043 名 HH。56.7%的人报告说在 WLB 方面存在困难。感知 WLB 困难的危险因素包括：与他人（无论同住人数多少）一起生活、难以维持生计、主要负责家务、有受抚养人、具有外部控制点、工作压力大、每周工作时间更长以及年龄较小。避免工作家庭冲突（WFC）的保护因素是工作和工资满意度。WFC 受到个人、经济、劳动和家庭因素的强烈影响：这些关系表明，劳动和家庭领域并非是两个相互独立的世界。
