Sammendrag
Advancements in communication technology have led to a more boundaryless

relationship between work and non-work life for contemporary workers.

Technology use after-hours proposes a flexibility-paradox, where workers are

granted with flexibility to perform work at their own convenience, but at the same

time feel a constant pressure to be connected to the workplace. The individual’s

perceived control over work-life boundaries had been argued to determine

whether technology use after-hours will be negatively or positively related to

work-life outcomes. This thesis explores in particular the role of perceived

boundary control in the relationship between work connectivity behavior afterhours,

respectively, and job satisfaction, turnover intention, relaxation, and

psychological detachment. Data has been collected from three Norwegian

organizations through a self-completion questionnaire distributed in two waves.

The analyses are based on data from 67 respondents. The results of this study

found that when individuals feel that they have low control over work-life

boundaries, they have lower job satisfaction, higher turnover intention, and are

less able to psychologically detach from work than do individuals with high

perceived boundary control. The results also indicate that individuals who

frequently use technology after-hours find it harder to psychologically detach

from work.
