| Summary: | Aim: This study was conducted descriptively with the aim of determining the relationship between perceived organizational support and work-family conflict among nurses.
Method: The population of the study consisted of nurses working in a university hospital in Eskişehir province (N: 923), and the sample (N: 432) consisted of nurses. Data was collected using the "Personal Information Form", "Perceived Organizational Support Scale", and "Work-Family Conflict Scale." The collected data was analyzed using the appropriate statistical programs.
Results: In the study, it was found that the overall mean score of the "Perceived Organizational Support Scale" in nurses was below the mean value of "2.61 (SD=0.67)", and the overall mean score of the "Work-Family Conflict Scale" was below the mean value of "3.41 (SD=0.82)". It was found that perceived organizational support and work-family conflict differed according to variables such as age, years of work experience in the profession, years of work experience in the institution, work type, and weekly working hours for nurses. A negative and significant relationship was found between perceived organizational support and work-family conflict among nurses (r=-0.39; p<0.05). According to the regression model, it was determined that perceived organizational support had a low-level significant effect on work-family conflict (B=-0.481; t=-8.86; p<0.05).
Conclusion: It was found that perceived organizational support in nurses reduces work-family conflict. In this context, it is recommended that healthcare organizations adopt supportive management policies that are family-friendly and do not ignore individual demands in order to reduce work-family conflict. |
