Abstract: 

Despite the heightened everyday discourse on the corollary of supervisor family support, work-life balance and job performance for individuals working in organization, the research on the nexus among these and their likely mediators are still scant. Building on Conservation of Resources (COR) theory, the present study addresses this void and investigates the effects of supervisor family support through perceived work and family demand, work and family conflict, work-life balance, job satisfaction, life satisfaction and organizational commitment. Results showed that supervisor family support was positively associated with work-life balance, while inversely related to perceived family demand, work-family conflict, and family–work conflict and no significant link to perceived work demand. The findings further reported that work-life balance was positively associated with employee attitudes, e.g. job satisfaction, life satisfaction and organisational commitment. The results showed positive relations between job satisfaction, life satisfaction and organisational commitment and job performance. The results further reported a significant positive relationship between work-life balance and job performance. Research-related and practical implications, as well as the limitations of the study, are discussed.
