COVID-19, ekonomik sosyolojik ve psikolojik etkileri ile tüm dünyayı saran bir pandemi ortamı oluşturmuştur. Hükümetler tarafından yapılan yasal düzenlemelerle ekonomik etkiler hafifletilmeye çalışılsa da pandemi nedeniyle alınan tedbirler ve ortaya çıkan sağlık sorunları, bireylerin pandeminin olumsuz etkilerini derinden hissetmesine neden olmuştur. Bu çalışmada, Türkiye'de COVID-19 pandemisinin ortaya çıkardığı olumsuzlukların ve pandemi tedbirlerinin kamusal ve özel alan üzerindeki etkileri tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. 506 katılımcı ile gerçekleştirilen anket çalışmasının ki-kare analiz sonuçlarına göre, istihdam durumu, sektör, çalışma süresi ve sosyal güvenlik kurumuna kayıtlı olma gibi işgücü piyasasına ilişkin değişkenlerin katılımcıların pandeminin yarattığı ekonomik sıkıntılardan etkilenme düzeyi ve bu süreçte yasal düzenlemelerden yararlanma imkânı üzerinde etkileri bulunmaktadır. Çalışmanın bir diğer önemli bulgusu ise evden çalışma imkânına sahip ve 2/3’ü kadın olan katılımcıların, uzaktan eğitime geçiş ile ev içi iş yükünün de artmış olmasıdır.

COVID-19 has created a pandemic environment that surrounds the whole world with its economic, sociological and psychological effects. Although the economic effects have been tried to be mitigated by the legal regulations made by the governments, the measures taken due to the pandemic and the health problems that have arisen have caused the individuals to feel the negative effects of the pandemic deeply. In this study, it has been tried to determine the effects of the pandemic measures and the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the public and private spheres in Turkey. According to the results of the chi-square analysis of the survey conducted with 506 participants, variables related to the labor market such as employment status, sector, working hours and being registered with the social security institution have effects on the level of being affected by the economic difficulties caused by the pandemic and the opportunity to benefit from legal regulations in this process of the participants. Another important finding of the study is that the domestic workload of the participants, who have the opportunity to work from home and 2/3 of whom are women, has increased due to the online education.
