Abstract

PurposeThis study aimed to examine the relationships among discriminary culture against women, hierarchical culture, sexual harassment and work–family conflict in the workplace.Design/methodology/approachData were collected from female employees in South Korea. Structural equation modeling was employed to analyze 202 responses obtained through a self-report survey.FindingsThe findings indicate that (a) discriminatory culture against women and a hierarchical culture were positively related to sexual harassment, and (b) sexual harassment positively affected work–family conflict. Additionally, both a discriminatory culture against women and a hierarchical culture had indirect effects on work–family conflict, which were mediated by sexual harassment.Originality/valueThis study can help researchers better understand the relationship between organizational culture and the work experience of female employees by examining the mechanisms that influence their work–family conflict.
