Abstract :

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of work-family relationship conflict causal relationship on burnout with mediating role of life quality and job satisfaction based on structural equation modeling. The research method was correlational. The population included all company staffs Sarkhoon & Qeshm Gas Treating from whom 200 participants were selected by stratified random sampling and were asked to complete the Work-Family Conflict questionnaire (Netmeyer et al., 1996), Quality of Life scale (World Health Organization, 1996), Job Descriptive Index (Smith et al., 1969), and Burnout questionnaire (Maslach & Jackson, 1981). Data analysis and evaluation of the proposed model were conducted by AMOS-21. The results showed that work-family conflict, both directly and indirectly, has been effective on burnout through the quality of life and job satisfaction. Also, the work-family conflict directly had an impact on the quality of life and job satisfaction. The research findings indicated that there was a significant negative impact of life quality and job satisfaction on burnout and a significant positive influence of life quality on job satisfaction (P >0.01). The overall model results indicated that the model parameters have appropriate fitness.
