The Impact Of Work-Family Role Conflict On Organizational Commitment: Empirical Evidence From Adrar University, Algeria

This study aimed to investigate the impact of work-family role conflict on organizational commitment among administrative employees at Adrar University in Algeria. The study adopted a descriptive-analytical approach, collecting data from a proportional stratified sample of 200 administrative staff members (100 males and 100 females). Simple linear regression analysis and t-test were employed to test the hypotheses. The results revealed a statistically significant negative impact of work-family role conflict on employees' organizational commitment, with the independent variable explaining 51% of the variance in organizational commitment. The study also uncovered significant gender differences in the intensity of role conflict and levels of organizational commitment. Female employees experienced more severe role conflict compared to their male counterparts (mean score of 25.12 versus 19.02), which negatively affected their organizational commitment (mean score of 18.71 versus 24.26 for males). The study recommends that organizations adopt supportive policies promoting work-life balance to enhance employees' organizational commitment.
