Sažetak
The aim of this study was to determine the perception of conflict between commitments in family and work roles of local governments’ employees and to affirm possible predictors (socio-demographic characteristics, job characteristics and family characteristics) of conflict on two levels: "work-family" and "work-family". In addition, the purpose of this study was to determine the perception of mobbing and the correlation between mobbing and work-family conflict and family-work conflict. Data were collected on a sample of 279 employees in the unit of local government (City Hall). In research were used the following questionnaires: Questionnaire on job satisfaction - Job Satisfaction Survey (Spector, 1998), Modified mobbing questionnaire (Koić i Apostolovski, 2006), Work-to-family conflict Scales (Netemeyer, Boles and McMurrian, 1996) and a questionnaire on socio-demographic data that is constructed for this study. According to the results of the research the variables gender and age were not found as statistically significant predictors of conflict of work and family roles. Characteristics of the work are found as the strongest predictor of "family-work" conflict and contribute with 20% of the variance, while the family’s characteristics contribute at the level of only 4% of the variance. The variables "satisfaction with the quality of family relations” (p <0.01) and "inappropriate job overloading and attribution of credit /blame"(p <0.01) are found as significant predictors of family-work conflict.
The work characteristics have a significant contribution to the "work-family" conflict with 29% of the variance, as well as the family characteristics significantly contribute at the level of 8% of the variance. "Work-family" conflict significantly more perceived who respondents spend less time with their families (p <0.01) and those who perceive work overload and inappropriate attribution of credit /blame (p <0.01), working in shifts (p <0.01) and that job satisfaction (p <0.01).
