Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine gender differences in response to work-life balance(WLB) and to investigate the effect of WLB on parenting confidence and to examine the moderating role of career management in the relationship between WLB and parenting confidence. Through SPSS 18.0, the model structure was tested between WLB, parenting confidence, and career management by a t-test, regression test, and hierarchical regression test. A total of 505 cases were analyzed. The major findings were as follows: First, it was found that there was no difference in the level of WLB by gender. Second, it was found that there was a positive relationship between WLB and parenting confidence. Third, it was found that career management moderated the relationship between WLB and parenting confidence. Based on the findings, practical implications about married female workers and the importance of WLB in the organizations were discussed.

본 연구는 일·생활 균형문화 확산 및 맞벌이 부부의 증가 등으로 변화된 성별에 따른 일·생활 균형 인식수준 차이분석과 일·생활 균형이 부모 자신감에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 하였다. 더불어 일·생활 균형이 부모 자신감에 미치는 영향관계에서 경력관리의 조절효과를 살펴보고자 하였다. SPSS 18.0 통계패키지 프로그램을 이용하여 t-검정, 단순선형회귀분석, 위계적 회귀분석을 통해 일·생활 균형, 부모 자신감, 경력관리의 구조적 관계를 규명하였다. 실증분석에는 총505개의 데이터를 활용하였으며, 결과를 요약하면 첫째, 성별에 따른 일·생활 균형 인식수준에 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났으며, 둘째, 일·생활 균형이 부모 자신감에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 일·생활 균형이 부모자신감에 미치는 영향관계에서 조직차원의 경력관리가 조절역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 기혼여성인력 활용 및 일·생활 균형지원을 위한 기업의 노력 등에 관한 실용적 시사점 등을 제안했다.
