Work experiences, job performance, and feelings of personal and family well-being

Abstract The present study examined the interaction between job performance and specific work experiences on three indicators of personal and family well-being (marital adjustment, work-family conflict, and quality of life) among 336 accountants. Perceptions of a nonsupportive and inequitable work environment, role conflict, and extensive time commitment to work were each related to one or more indicators of well-being. In addition, the relationship between job performance and well-being varied as a function of gender, time commitment to work, and the degree of role conflict experienced.
