Examining the Effects of Work Family Enrichment on Job Satisfaction and Family Satisfaction: The Moderating Role of Affectivity

The Effect of Work-Family Enrichment on Career and Life Satisfaction of Women Entrepreneurs

Their roles in business and family life, which are two important areas of their life, are intertwined in the woman's life and these roles are in constant interaction. A positive or negative situation in one area may affect the other area and may have positive and negative effects depending on the situation. In this study conducted in this direction, a study was conducted on women entrepreneurs who played a large number of roles in the family and their jobs, and the relationships between job-family enrichment and life and career satisfaction of women entrepreneurs were examined. For this purpose, the data were collected from 336 women entrepreneurs operating in Adana using convenience-sampling method through surveys. After the questionnaire was prepared, necessary permissions were received from the Research and Publication Ethics Board of Adana Alparslan Türkeş Science and Technology University (2018/3-4) and it was applied between April 5 and May 5, 2019. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to reveal the structural validity of the scales used in the study, and the indirect relationships between the variables were analyzed with the structural equation model. The results obtained from the confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the model fits well. As a result of the path analysis conducted to reveal the direct and indirect effects between the variables, it was revealed that work-family enrichment was positively related to career and life satisfaction. Similarly, career satisfaction has a mediation role in the effect of work-family enrichment on life satisfaction.

The Consequences of Work–Family Enrichment in Families on the Behaviour of Children

This study considers the spillover effect of work-family enrichment in parents on the behaviour of their children. Using a mediation model with parental well-being and parenting styles, the study unravels the associations between a positive perspective on work-life balance and the outcomes in a child’s live. Using 4012 parents from the data of the Australian LSAC (Growing up in Australia), the model shows that children’s behaviour is influenced by parents’ experience of work-family enrichment through parental well-being. Also, parenting performance functions as a mediator between work-family enrichment and the behaviour of the child. Parents show more stimulating parenting behaviour when they experience enrichment between work and their family.

Direct and indirect effects of work‒family enrichment: role of gender role ideology

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine the antecedents (i.e. work‒family culture and decision latitude) and outcome (innovative workplace behavior (IWB)) of work‒family enrichment (WFE). The study also examines the moderated mediation hypothesis between WFE and outcome, considering work‒life balance (WLB) as a mediator and gender role ideology (GRI) as the moderator.Design/methodology/approachData for the study were collected through a questionnaire survey from 426 Indian dual working parents, working in various sectors, through purposive sampling technique.FindingsThe study found that work‒family culture and decision latitude are positively related to WFE, which, in turn, results in increased IWB, with WLB acting as its mediator. Further, the study also found a moderating effect of GRI between WFE and WLB relationship; more specifically, the relationship between WFE and balance is stronger for egalitarian employees (high GRI).Research limitations/implicationsUsing self-reported questionnaire data and a cross-sectional research design is the limitation of this study.Originality/valueThe study examines a relatively less focused phenomenon of work‒life interface, that is WFE in one of the underrepresented contexts like India; further, the study extends the range of antecedents and outcomes of WFE. Additionally, it contributes to understand the enrichment‒balance relationship, whereby it explains the role of GRI in developing a balanced perception.

Work-family balance measures in companies and employees’ work satisfaction: the effect of work-family enrichment

This paper analyses the relationship between a group of different practices of work-family balance and the employees’ job satisfaction, as well as the relationship between job satisfaction and employee’s organizational commitment. We differentiate this relationship according to the level of work-family (W-F) enrichment and family-work (F-W) enrichment, as well as we analyze the role of work-family (W-F) and family-work (F-W) conflict. We use a sample of 322 employees, and test the relationships with structural equations. The results show that a higher use of work-family practices has more beneficial effects on enrichment and conflict, and that both enrichment and conflict influence employees’ job satisfaction. However, higher levels of interference or stress at work make employees feel less satisfied at work. The paper highlights the positive role of enrichment in order to improve employee’s job satisfaction as well as to increase his/her organizational commitment. Keywords: work-family balance practices, conflict, enrichment, job satisfaction, organizational commitment.

The mediating effect of work-family enrichment between family supportive supervisor behavior and nurses' career resilience

Objective To examine the mediating role of work-family enrichment between family supportive supervisor behavior and nurses' career resilience. Methods Totally 727 nurses selected by cluster-random-sampling were investigated by the family supportive supervisor behaviors scale(FSSBS), the wok-family enrichment scale(WFES) and the career resilience scale(CRS). Results The scores of family supportive supervisor behavior, work to family enrichment, family to work enrichment and career resilience were (3.74±0.68), (3.36±0.77), (3.59±0.72) and (3.41±0.84) respectively. The family supportive supervisor behavior(r=0.31, P<0.01), work to family enrichment(r=0.32, P<0.01) and family to wok enrichment(r=0.30, P<0.01) were positively related to career resilience. The family supportive supervisor behavior positively influenced career resilience(P<0.01). Work-family enrichment partially mediated the association between family supportive supervisor behavior and career resilience, accounted for 37.7% of the total effect. Conclusion Health organizations should try to build family supportive organizational climate and improve nurses' level of work-family enrichment and career resilience, then promote job performance and job satisfaction. Key words: Nurse; Family supportive supervisor behavior; Work-family enrichment; Career resilience

Research of Work-Family Balance Based on Family Life Cycle

This study examined the effect of different stages of Chinese family life cycle on work-family balance and the moderating effect of gender by using a sample of 352 employees in China. Reference to scholars in the division of the family life cycle, the study of the family life cycle is divided into six stages. We predicted and found that the family life cycle is significantly different in the effect of work-family enrichment and conflict.
