Studiens syfte är att undersöka arbetstagares upplevelser av distansarbete under COVID-19 pandemin samt hur de upplevt stress i relation till krav-kontroll-stödmodellen. Arbetstagarna i studien har arbetat på distans mer än 50 procent och under en period av minst sex månader under pandemin. Tio kvalitativa semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes och insamlad data analyserades med analysmetoden tematisk analys. Studien visar på positiva upplevelser av integrering mellan arbetsliv och privatliv. Produktiviteten och effektiviteten har ökat och tekniken har upplevts välfungerande under perioden av distansarbete. Störningsmoment i distansarbetet upplevdes vara att de inte fått träffa kollegor och distraktioner som exempelvis hushållssysslor. Trots avsaknaden av arbetets sociala aspekter på grund av distansarbete är arbetstagarna positiva till fortsatt distansarbete efter pandemin. Arbetstagarna upplever låga krav, hög kontroll, högt stöd och låg stress, vilket ger stöd för Karasek och Theorells (1990) krav-kontroll-stödmodell. / The purpose of the study is to investigate employees' experiences of teleworking during the COVID-19 pandemic and how they experienced stress in relation to the demand-control-support model. The employees in the study have worked remotely more than 50 percent and during a period of more than six months during the pandemic. Ten qualitative semi-structured interviews were conducted and the collected data were analyzed by using the method thematic analysis. The study shows positive experiences of integration between work and personal life. Productivity and efficiency have increased and the technology has been experienced as well-functioning during the period of telework. Disturbances in teleworking were perceived to be that they were not allowed to meet colleagues and distractions such as household chores. Despite the lack of social aspects of work due to teleworking, workers are positive about continued telework after the pandemic. Employees experience low demands, high control, high support and low stress, which provides support for Karasek & Theorell's (1990) demand-control-support model.
