The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between work-family conflict, family-work conflict and job satisfaction using structural equation modeling. The data is obtained from 226 health service staff (doctors and nurses) in Turkey. Considering the findings, it is concluded that health employees experience work-family conflict more than they experience family-work conflict. Results obtained from the structural equation modeling indicate that there is a reciprocal relationship between work-family conflict and family-work conflict and that work-family conflict has an influence on job satisfaction whereas family-work conflict does not affect job satisfaction.

“…First of all, in the CEE context, it is very likely that different factors play key roles in mediating spillover effects than those identified in the predominantly AngloSaxon literature. For example, financial well-being plays a critical role in Hungary, while previous analyses tended to pay less attention to this factor (Jung Jang et al 2012;Lourel et al 2009;Powell and Greenhaus, 2010). In addition to these findings, here are also signs that the accustomed dichotomy of inflexible working conditions for males vs. more flexible working conditions limited to females alone might not be so straightforward in the post-socialist context.…”

Work-to-family spillover: Gender differences in Hungary

It is crucial to understand the role that labor market positions might play in creating gender differences in work-life balance. One theoretical approach to understanding this relationship is the spillover theory. The spillover theory argues that an individual's life domains are integrated; meaning that well-being can be transmitted between life domains. Based on data collected in Hungary in 2014, this paper shows that work-to-family spillover does not affect both genders the same way. The effect of work on family life tends to be more negative for women than for men. Two explanations have been formulated in order to understand this gender inequality. According to the findings of the analysis, gender is conditionally independent of spillover if financial status and flexibility of work are also incorporated into the analysis. This means that the relative disadvantage for women in terms of spillover can be attributed to their lower financial status and their relatively low access to flexible jobs. In other words, the gender inequalities in work-to-family spillover are deeply affected by individual labor market positions. The observation of the labor market's effect on work-life balance is especially important in Hungary since Hungary has one 1 This paper has been prepared as part of a Hungarian Scientific Research Fund project Dilemmas and strategies in reconciling family and work (OTKA K104707); Márta Radó has also been supported by the joint Research Excellence Award of the Hungarian National Bank and Corvinus University of Budapest.

In recent decades, spillover has become a highly influential concept which has led to the initiation of new theoretical and methodological approaches that are designed to understand how people attempt to reconcile their work and private lives. The very notion of spillover presupposes that these spheres are connected, since the people who move between them bring certain 'less visible' content with them such as cognitive or affective mental constructs, skills, behaviors, etc. This paper attempts to create fresh insight into the different areas, themes and methodologies related to how spillover has been addressed over the last ten years. Four main categories are discussed based on the 76 academic articles that were selected: (1) general spillover research, (2) job flexibility and spillover, (3) individual coping strategies, and (4) the spillover effect on the different genders. The final section of the paper provides a tentative synthesis of the main conclusions and findings from the examined papers.Keywords spillover, work-life balance, flexibility, gender differences, coping strategy, empirical review 1 Gábor Király (corresponding author) is associate professor at the Budapest Business School and senior lecturer at the Corvinus University of Budapest, e-mail: kiraly.gabor@pszfb.bgf. hu, gabor.kiraly@uni-corvinus.hu, Beáta Nagy is professor at the Corvinus University of Budapest, Zsuzsanna Géring is research fellow at the Budapest Business School, Márta Radó is Ph.D. student, Yvette Lovas and Bence Pálóczi are undergraduate students at the Corvinus University of Budapest.
