Objective: This study aimed to examine the associations between the usefulness of smart work and work-family conflict and between the techno-stress and work-family conflict among dual-income women during the COVID-19 period. Also, the moderating roles of fairness in the division of housework between the links were explored. Methods: A total of 338 dual-income women who experienced ICT-based non-face-to-face working during the COVID-19 period were participants. A series of hierarchical regressions were conducted to analyze the moderating roles of perception of fairness in the division of housework. Results: Dual-income women who perceived high smart work usefulness and fairness in the housework division reported low work-family conflict. In the associations between techno-stress and family-work conflict, the perception of fairness in the housework division played a protective factor. Conclusions: ICT-based non-face-to-face working methods will be used more in the future. For dual-income women, fairness in the housework division is necessary to increase the usefulness of smart work, reduce techno-stress, and reduce work-family conflict ultimately.
