ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to examine the moderating effect of gender on the relationship between work-family conflict on employees‟ job and family satisfactions. The study covered University of Cape Coast junior staff. Descriptive cross-sectional survey was employed to achieve the objectives of the study. A multi-stage sampling technique was used to select 339 respondents for the study. A structured questionnaire which consisted four sections was used as the main instrument for data collection. Descriptive (frequencies, mean and standard deviations) and inferential statistics (regression analysis) were employed. It was found out that work-family conflict (work interference with family and family interference with work) affect job satisfaction negatively. Furthermore, work-family conflict (work interference with family and family interference with work ) negatively affect family satisfaction. Additionally, gender significantly moderates work-family conflict and family satisfaction, whereas gender does not moderate work-family conflict and job satisfaction. Recommendations were that managements and policy makers should tackle and implement work-family conflict managements programmes, job and family satisfaction initiatives and seminars to enrich the knowledge of junior staff on how to handle conflicts both at work and home. Also, managements and policy makers should apportion liberal work-load for women as compared to male counterparts since the society and culture determines what the obligations of males and females are.
