ABSTRACT This study sought to address the determinants of work-family conflict among female teachers and how it affects their job satisfaction. The specific objectives of the study were to identify the determinants of work-family conflict; assess the differences between work-family conflict among married and unmarried female teachers; and examine the effect of work-family conflict on satisfaction of female teachers. A total of 250 respondents were used for the study. The lottery method of the simple random sampling was used to select respondents. Questionnaires were used to collect data and correlation, post-hoc Tukey test and regression analysis were ran. The study revealed that financial contributions; work overloads both at home and in school; number of students handled by teachers; as well as the number of family members one caters for determine work-family conflict among female teachers. The study again indicated that work-family conflict among married female teachers was higher than unmarried female teachers. It also emerged that there was a negative relationship between work-family conflict and job satisfaction of female teachers. It is recommended that female teachers must balance their loyalty to both their families and jobs; spouses, family members as well as supervisors must offer the needed support to female teachers to enable them give off their best. Again, financial pressure as well as high dependency on working female teachers must be reduced in order to reduce work-family conflict
