Abstract

"Objective � Work environment and family roles are two of the most important life domains; they are different but interconnected with each other. Each role requires energy and responsibilities to be handled effectively. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the experience of work-family interaction in this process. The purpose of this study is to develop an understanding of the effect of work and family demands on job satisfaction which is mediated by the experience in work-family interaction, in particular the work-family conflict. Methodology/Technique � Self-report questionnaires were given to permanent employees who work in non-banking financial sectors in Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia. They were selected by purposive sampling and 100 valid questionnaires were collected. Findings � The path analysis results show that work demands have a significant positive effect on work-family conflict, while family demands have no significant effect on work-family conflict, and work-family conflict has a significant negative effect on job satisfaction. Novelty � Although it is believed that work and family demands contribute to outcomes such as job satisfaction, it is unclear how this occurs. It is recommended that organizations need to manage work-related stressors through familyfriendly policies and programs that enable work and family domains to integrate with each other, as well as developing an organizational culture that supports the positive interaction of work and family.
