the relationship between discourses and practices related to reproductive behavior and its
relationship with gender assumptions and the organization of care time, in women and men devoted

was applied to a questionnaire aimed at deepen into their experiences, regarding of conciliation in
times of pandemic. This work makes evident the precarious employment conditions in which women
who work in higher education institutions try to reconcile paid work, housework and care work, related
to gender inequalities and the discomforts and tensions associated with them.
