Research Abstract |
This study focuses on the work-family conflict (WFC) concept as one of the indicators of work-family balance and clarifies the career stress which can lead to WFC. In this study, it was clarified that the respondents of nurses from university hospitals had difficulty in balancing work and family due to various stressors. In general, work-family balance has a significantly positive influence on health conditions and a significantly negative influence on work stress. Hence, more attention needs to be paid to nursing staff members, in particular to nurses of the administrative class, who play important roles in university hospitals. Hence, organizational intervention (organizational development) to nurses is highly effective for supporting the career development of nurses and organizational vitalization of university hospitals.
