Abstract

Objective: This study aims to determine how nurses' work-family life conflict level affects job productivity and work stress.Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted between May and July 2018. No sampling was performed; the study was conducted with 95 nurses who agreed to participate in the study among 231 nurses working in a public hospital. The data were collected using the Socio-demographic form, Work-Family Life Conflict Scale, Attitude Scale on Productivity, and Work Stress Scale. The data were analyzed using SPSS-22 statistical software.Results: The nurses were found to have a moderate-level (3.34±0.90) mean score in the Work-Family Life Conflict Scale. They were also found to receive a moderate-level score in the Attitude Scale on Productivity (49.17±3.74). However, it was found that when the working conditions worsened, their productivity decreased and family-work life conflict and work stress increased. In addition, dedication to the job was found to increase as the family-work conflict and work stress increased.Conclusion: High dedication to the job indicates that individuals try to be happy by establishing a psychological balance by giving priority to their work and by giving importance to their job. This study is believed to contribute to future studies that aim to increase nurses' productivity and decrease their work stress. It is recommended to do this work in larger groups and to make initiatives to reduce work stress and increase productivity in order to ensure work-family life balance.
