Bridging the Gap: The Role of Meaningful Work in Job Stress and Work-Family Dynamics

Using the Job Demands-Resources model, this study examines the interplay between job-related stressors and meaningful work and their impact on work-family conflict (WFC) and family-work conflict (FWC). The findings highlight job stress and certain employee attitudes influencing WFC, mediated by meaningful work, and suggest actionable managerial strategies for improving employee well-being.
