ABSTRACT

Several research works have examined the difficulty of balancing job and family obligations. They've used various methods, looked at different timeframes, and explored different fields. Numerous research have established a correlation between work-family conflict and variables such as stress levels, job satisfaction, performance at work, and family life satisfaction. However, none of these studies have explicitly examined the conflict that results when work and family responsibilities collide, particularly in the field of education. This indicates a gap in our knowledge of this field. To better understand how female employees in the education sector perform on the job and are satisfied with their jobs, this study will look at the effects, contributing variables, causes, coping methods, and correlations between these characteristics.

The purpose of the proposed study is to fill this gap by examining the connection between family-work and work-family conflict. It will examine the causes of these conflicts, as well as their effects on women's performance in the education sector.  The study intends to shed light on a significant but often ignored facet of balancing work and family obligations by concentrating on these areas.
