Original Kurzfassung:
A flexible and digital workplace promotes not only telework (working from home or in a mobile office), but non-work related computer use during working hours (also known as cyberslacking) as well. Cyberslacking is usually regarded as a deviant behavior and something rather negative. However, evidence suggests that cyberslacking might be beneficial for reconciling work and private life. This study focuses on the role of cyberslacking in the context of life-domain conflicts, telework, and well-being. The cross-sectional and longitudinal results suggest that 1.) cyberslacking works on the short run as a moderator to buffer the negative relationship between life-domain conflicts and well-being, 2.) teleworkers differ significantly in their cyberslacking behavior from non-teleworkers, and 3.) the type of life-domain conflict matters. Cyberslacking cannot be seen as a generally negative behavior, but employers and scientists alike should look at potential positive aspects.
