“…The job demands during and after the trips absorbed them, which frequently undermined the time spent with the family and/or their social activities (Shaffer et al, 2012;M€ akel€ a et al, 2015a), which affected their WLB. IBTs frequently reported travel-related concerns regarding their (1) safety (Sheivachman, 2016); (2) stress (Ivancevich et al, 2003;Striker et al, 2000); (3) physical health (Demel and Mayrhofer, 2010;Rogers and Reilly, 2002) linked to sleeping deprivation, jet lag and unhealthy lifestyle (Harvey et al, 2010); (4) mental health and psychological disorders (Espino et al, 2002;Lirio, 2014), such as stress, depression, anxiety, burnout (Jensen, 2014), emotional exhaustion (Westman and Etzion, 2002) and substance misuse (Pinto et al, 2020) and ( 5) difficulties in managing their work-life interface (Pinto and Maia, 2015;Lirio, 2014), including relational (Harvey et al, 2010;Shaffer et al, 2012) and family problems (M€ akel€ a, et al, 2015a;Baker and Ciuk, 2015). These difficulties, however, were shown to be mediated by certain job-resources, such as IBTs control over the travel patterns that include the possibility to (1) plan the trips before and during travel and to (2) shorten business travel duration (Westman et al, 2009).…”
