Abstract: | Many organizations have implemented variety of initiatives to address workfamily conflict issues. This study investigates the impact of formal and informal workfamily practices on both work-to-family and family-to-work conflict (WFC, FWC) and a broad set of job-related outcomes. A structural equation modeling is utilized to analyze data from the 1997 National Study of the Changing Workforce (NSCW). Results showed that negative career consequences and lack of managerial support were significantly related to work-to-family conflict. These were significant predictors of conflict even when accounting for the effects of work schedule flexibility. Work-to-family conflict was linked to job dissatisfaction, stress and turnover intentions, while family-to-work conflict was linked to stress and absenteeism. There were no apparent differences btw. women and men in terms of the observed relationships. |
