THE IMPACT OF WORK-LIFE CONFLICT AND DUAL-CAREER COUPLE ON JOB SATISFACTION WITH THE MODERATING ROLE OF PERCEIVED ORGANIZATIONAL SUPPORT

The major intent of this research is to inspect the impact of work-life conflict, job stress and work overload of dual-career life partners on job contentment and how perceived organizational support moderates their relationship. We collected data from 170 employees of different organizations and companies in the capital city Islamabad and Rawalpindi. Moderation regression inspection was used to get results from the data and close-ended and adopted questionnaires were used in order to collect data. Analysis findings described that work overload, job stress and work-life conflict have a negative impact on job satisfaction in dual-profession couples. And if the organization provides support, then these problems may reduce. This study helps and guides managers, policymakers and market leaders in order to develop a flexible and supportive organizational culture to boost their workers’ job contentment. The data we collected for this study was mainly from two cities in Pakistan, Islamabad and Rawalpindi. So we are not able to generalize this study to the whole country. Other researchers and investigators may target other problems of dual-career professionals and they can target other cities’ populations.
