The work presented below emerges as an extension in the framework of a postdoctoral research on 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 to academic and research work. From May to June 2020, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, it 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.
