Abstract

This study examined if the family responsive policies, flexible and supportive management, influenced job satisfaction and turnover intentions through work-family conflict. Although extensive research has been conducted in area of work-family conflict, studies have failed to examine the indirect relationships between work-family policies, work-family conflict, and work-related outcomes. Despite lack of support for mediation, results indicated that the relationship between family supportive policies and job satisfaction is moderated or influenced by work-family conflict. Family responsive policies are related to job satisfaction more when work-family conflict is high. Work-family conflict did not moderate the relationship between family responsive policies and turnover intentions. Implications and future research opportunities are presented.
