Mediator effect of self-efficacy for managing work-family conflict in the relationship between quantitative job demands and burnout

In the increasingly aggravated working conditions, workers/individuals face with excessive amount of work that needs to be done within a limited timeframe. The workload and family demands that must be fulfilled in a short time cause conflict in terms of time in individual's life. The aim of this research is to examine the mediating effect of self-efficacy in managing work and family conflict on the relationship between quantitative demands and burnout. For this purpose, a survey was administered to a total of 409 employees, blue collar employees (worker, master, assistant, master, technician, chief technician) and white collar employees (office staff, engineer, supervisor, expert, manager) to measure the level burnout mediated by self-efficacy on managing family conflict on employees' quantitative demands. As a result of the study, the workload and time pressure as quantitative demands were found to have an impact on burnout with the partial mediation of self-efficacy for managing work-family conflict.Keywords: Job Demands, Quantitative Job Demands, Work and Family Conflict, Self-Efficacy for Managing Work-Family Conflict, Self-Efficacy, Burnout.
