Abstract

Work and family are essential aspects of adulthood, exerting a substantial impact on well-being and satisfaction. Work–family conflict refers to conflicts that originate at work and then affect family life and vice versa. Higher levels of stress, the emergence of physical and mental health issues, detrimental effects on family relationships, and poorer life satisfaction are a few outcomes that may have an influence on both individuals and other family members. Work–family conflict can have a socioeconomic impact on broader public health, as it may result in poor job performance and high absenteeism rates at work. This current study aims to identify the mechanisms of spillover–crossover within the work–family interferences. Using a systematic literature review from 57 articles collected from three prestigious databases: Scopus, Web of Science, and PsycINFO, the study found that direct crossover is the predominant form of transmission. However, the crossover phenomenon is not only found in marital relationships but includes interactions between parents-children, superiors-subordinates, and employees-customers. This systematic literature review advances a novel framework by synthesizing these findings, thereby promoting a comprehensive understanding of the spillover–crossover effects of work–family conflict. In turn, this understanding can serve as the basis for the formulation of workplace policies, offering a promising path forward for both individuals and society.
