Resumen

La pandemia de COVID-19 alteró el entorno laboral, la educación y la dinámica familiar. A pesar de estas alteraciones, son escasos los estudios que han analizado el síndrome de agotamiento parental en el contexto de las organizaciones. Este artículo se vale de la teoría de los sistemas bioecológicos del desarrollo humano para ampliar la comprensión del síndrome de agotamiento parental y determinar sus factores contribuyentes. A diferencia del agotamiento laboral, el agotamiento parental debe reconocerse como un síndrome diferenciado para el que hace falta un enfoque multifacético. El estudio contribuye a la literatura sobre la cuestión con un análisis bibliométrico. Propone la teoría de los sistemas bioecológicos de Bronfenbrenner como base para formular un modelo sistémico del síndrome de agotamiento parental y sus efectos en la conciliación entre la vida laboral y personal. Además, la desigualdad estructural de género no se ha tenido debidamente en cuenta ni se ha abordado el fenómeno desde una perspectiva sistémica.
