This study investigates the work-family interactions of married men, the variables affecting these interactions, and the differences between the variables affecting work-family conflict and those affecting work-family enhancement. The subjects of this study were 1,249 married men. The major findings are as follows. First, married men perceived moderate levels of work-family conflict and work-family enhancement both from work to family and from family to work. Second, the level of work-family conflict was higher than that of family-work conflict, and the level of family-work enhancement was higher than that of work-family enhancement. Third, work-family conflict was influenced by external occupational rewards, the relative importance of work and family life, a family-friendly work environment, perceived working hours, and spousal support. The variables that have an effect on work-family enhancement are perceived working hours, a family-friendly work environment, the relative importance of work and family life, and spousal support. Fourth, family-work conflict is influenced by age, spousal support, perceived family-work enhancement are spousal support, seeking internal and external occupational rewards, the relative importance of work and family life, and a family-friendly work environment. Finally, the variables that affect work-family conflict and those affecting work-family enhancement are similar, but the variables affecting family-work conflict and those affecting family-work enhancement are very different.

일과 가정생활 간의 균형문제는 더 이상 여성만의 문제가 아니다. 여성의 취업이 늘어나면서 많은 남성이 더 이상 유일한 생계부양자로서의 역할을 담당하지 않게 되었으며, 남성에 대한 가정생활에의 참여 요구가 점차 높아져 왔다. 한편 최근에는 남성의 일과 가정의 조화에 대해 가정생활에 대한 책임을 강조하는 것을 넘어서 남성 개인의 행복이라는 측면에서 논의가 이루어지기도 한다.
일-가정 갈등과 일-가정 향상에 대한 영향 요인을 살펴봄으로써 무엇을 알 수 있었는가?
본 연구는 일-가정 갈등과 일-가정 향상에 대한 영향 요인들을 살펴봄으로써 남성의 일과 가정의 양립은 개인의 가족과 일에 대한 태도와 가치관의 변화, 남성의 가정생활의 중요성을 인정하고 지원해주는 사회적 분위기의 확산, 그리고 이를 지원하는 정책적 노력이 함께 이루어질 때 얻어질 수 있음을 확인해 볼 수 있었다.
가정생활이 남성의 직장일에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가?
가정생활이 직장일에 미치는 긍정적 영향을 더 크게 느끼는 것은, 남성에게 있어 가정은 일을 하고 돌아와 휴식을 취하고 재충전하는 곳으로서 가정생활의 긍정적 경험이 직장일을 잘 할 수 있도록 하는 원동력으로 작용한다는 의미를 크게 부여하고 있는 것이라 할 수 있다. 이는 조사 대상 남성들이 가족 내지 가정생활에 대해 가지는 기대를 반영한 것일 수 있다.
