A Discussion on Perceived Life Quality, Work-Family Conflict, and Workplace Bullying

Abstract

Working adults have been facing several challenges in their work lives. Individuals encounter conflicts between their work and domestic duties and feel strain due to job-related and family-related demands. Workplace bullying is increasingly being recognized as a serious problem in the modern organization. Being exposed to workplace bullying influences individuals' relations with other family members and their personal lives as well. Thus, since organizational psychology and management science have been increasingly focused on spiritual aspects of individuals' experiences within work life, the main goal of the study is to highlight the importance of improving the quality of work-life and its relationship with modern families. In particular, this study focuses on the relationship between workplace bullying, perceived life quality, and work-family conflict within the scope of human capital and workplace spirituality. Following the conceptual definitions and findings of previous research, some practical and theoretical recommendations are presented.
