Abstract

In this study the Survey of Effort - Reward Imbalance on Work Life Conflict was investigated considering the meditating the role of subjective well-being. The statistical population includes all official staff and faculty members of Isfahan Azad University (Khorasgan) to 700 people in 2019, through Morgan table, 248 people were selected and a questionnaire was distributed. To analyze the data obtained, SPSS and WARP-PLS6 were employed. The results showed that the imbalance of effort-reward is effective on work-life conflict (p = 0.27) and the imbalance of effort-reward and mental well-being is effective on work-life conflict (p=-0.11). Mental well-being plays a moderating role in the relationship between perceptions of the imbalance of effort-reward over Work-Life conflict. Mental well-being directly modulates the relationship between effort-reward imbalance and Work-Life conflict, and if individuals have mental well-being, the feeling of effort-reward imbalance will have less of an effect on Work-Life conflict.
