Abstract
Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, this research's background was to break the chain of virus spread, and the government requires physical distancing. Working from home, which causes many employees to work from home, creates conflicts for married female workers. The research objective is to examine and analyze the direct effect of job demands, role conflict, role ambiguity on work-family conflicts. Data were obtained through questionnaires and submitted online to 100 married women who work in universities in East Java, Indonesia, both public and private, and then the analysis was carried out using Partial Least Square (PLS). The results showed that all hypotheses were accepted, and the most dominant influence was role conflict on family-work conflicts. The conclusion is that married women experience many conflicts in carrying out their jobs because other demands must also be considered, namely the mother and wife's role.

Summary
The effects cover the psychological and financial conditions (Holmes, 2020). Psychological aspects, such as stress, despair, and saturation, are the most common problems (Shepherd-Banigan, Bell, Basu, Booth-LaForce, & Harris, 2016). A family could spend their weekend for recreation and relaxation, they could not. All the members are forced to stay at home. The parents go to work in the morning to afternoon, but sometimes at night, and children go to school from morning to afternoon, all those activities should be done at home. The first and second week of the stay at home activity was manageable since each of the family members spent their time together while doing their activity, but after that, are they fine? The first and second week of the stay at home activity was manageable since each of the family members spent their time together while doing their activity, but after that, are they fine? The answer to this question is probably different between one family and another one
