Abstract

Through the sustained trend of digitalization, the relevance of remote working continues to grow. However, the effects of teleworking on subjective well-being (SWB) are not yet clear. To better fathom these effects, it is necessary to consider alternative aspects that might be relevant to a worker's well-being in the context of the recent shift to telework. In particular, teleworkers' engagement in leisure crafting or their family construct should be taken into account as these are related to need satisfaction and thus to their SWB. Based on the self- determination theory (Ryan & Deci, 2000) and the spillover theory (Stains, 1980), this study, therefore, examines the effect of engagement in leisure crafting on the SWB of teleworkers. Additionally, it is investigated whether the relationship between leisure crafting and SWB is mediated by work-life conflicts. Results of this cross-sectional online study (N = 58, collected via convenience sampling) showed no significant effect of engagement in leisure crafting on SWB (z = 0.32, p = .751). Based on this study, it might be that the involvement in leisure crafting of teleworkers has little effect on their SWB. Limitations, including the studies' small sample size as well as limited generalizability, could constitute some reasons and will be further outlined.
