This empirical research mainly investigates the relationship between work-family conflict and organizational performance. Three key variables apply for the empirical research; work-family conflict, organizational performance, and family-friendly HR practices. A total of 230 questionnaires is collected from mid-sized companies for hypothesis testing. The empirical analysis shows that work-life balance has a great importance on workers' job satisfaction and intention to leave. The family-friendly HR practices play a moderating role between work-family conflict and organizational performance. The findings support the fact that achieving work-life balance enhances organizational performance and using family-friendly HR practices is an ideal for balancing between work- and family life.

이 연구는 동아시아 한중일 3개국을 대상으로, 낮은 출산율을 공통의 특징으로 하면서도 서구 선진사회들에 비해 저출산 문제를 해결하기 위한 일-가정 양립 지원 정책이 미비한 이유를 3개국에서 각기 다른 형태를 보이는 젠더레짐(gender regime) 개념을 통해 탐구하려고 하였다. 연구를 위한 분석대상 자료는 2012년 국제 사회조사(ISSP)의 '가족과 변화하는 젠더 역할 모듈(Family and Changing Gender Roles)'이다. 연구결과, 전통적 성역할 고정관념과 노동시간은 3개국 모두에서 일-가정 양립 갈등과 정적인 관계를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 그런데 전통적 성역할 고정 관념과 노동시간, 연령대를 제외한 모든 영향요인은 한국에서만 차이를 보인 것도 특징이다. 한편 임금과 교육수준이 일-가정 갈등에 유의미한 영향을 미치지 않는다는 사실은 일-가정 갈등이 전체 사회 구성원들에게 보편적인 문제라는 점을 보여주었다. 연구의 결론에 따라 세 가지 정책 제안을 하였다. 일-가정 양립의 문제가 전통적 성역할 고정관념과 중요하게 연관된다는 점을 확인한 점은 이 연구의 중요한 의의이다. 연구의 역사가 긴 서구사회에 비해 관심의 주변부에 있던 동아시아 국가들 역시 젠더 레짐의 정책적 성격에 따라 분류될 수 있음을 밝힌 것도 의미가 있다.

In this study, a meta-analysis was conducted on a total of 34 studies (14 academic papers, 20 dissertations in academic journals) conducted in Korea from 2000 to 2020 in order to understand the relationship between work-family conflict, work-family enhancement and social support. (N=17,530). Work-family conflict and work-family enhancement were used for analysis by dividing the direction into the case where the direction was not distinguished, the direction from work to home, and from home to work. The social support was divided into family, spouse, organization, supervisor, coworker, and not classified according to support resource, and a subgroup analysis was conducted. Depending on the type of support, a subgroup analysis was conducted by dividing into emotional, instrumental, informational, and appraisal support. As a result of the analysis, both support resources and types showed a significant relationship with work-family conflict and work-family enhancement. It was confirmed that the most significant relationship was changed according to each sub-factor and the direction of conflict and enhancement. Based on the above research results, the implications and limitations of this study were presented and directions for future research were suggested.

The subjects of this study were 1,934 married women wage workers who were extracted from the data of the 8th year of the female family panel survey surveyed in 2020. Path analysis was conducted to analyze the hypothesis using AMOS 21.0. The study results revealed that family life change doesn't directly affect work-family balance conflict, but increases job satisfaction. But family life change indrectly affects increasing work-family balance conflict and decreasing job satisfaction through daily stress. And daily stress affects increasing work-family balance conflict and decreasing job satisfaction. Additionally work-family balance conflict has an effect on reducing job satisfaction.

The purpose of this study is to identify the moderating effect of each of the three stress response (problem-centered treatment, pursuit of social support, and positive thinking) in the effect of work-family conflict between dual-earner couples on marriage satisfaction. To this end, 369 married couples (369 wives, 369 husbands) who raise children under the age of 6 were surveyed on stress coping (problem-centered, social support, and positive thinking), work-family conflicts, and marriage satisfaction. Based on the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model (APIM), the collected data verified six research models by distinguishing the moderating effects of each of the three coping strategies from the direction of Work to Family conflict and Family to Work conflict. Interaction graphs were also presented to determine the pattern of significant buffering effects. As a result, first of all, the problem-oriented strategy of the wife buffer the negative impact of the husband's WFC on the husband's own and wife's marriage satisfaction. It was also found that problem-oriented strategy that husband himself uses to buffer the negative impact of the husband's FWC on his wife's marriage satisfaction. Second, the pursuit of social support confirmed that the negative effects of the husband's WFC on the husband's marriage satisfaction were mitigated by the pursuit of social support used by his wife. Third, in the case of positive thinking, the effect of the positive thinking on the husband's WFC on the marriage satisfaction of the husband and wife was shown, and the positive response effect of the wife's FWC conflict was also shown. Finally, based on the results of this study, the discussion and implications of the study were presented.
