In contemporary society, societal changes and technological advances have created a potential interference and conflict between the competing demands of work and family needs for resources. Extensive research in the past few decades on the antecedents and outcomes of work–family conflict has indicated that this kind of conflict will detract from employee's quality of life. Therefore, the identification of work–family conflict issues is important to help employees reduce the level of dysfunctional interrole conflict. The research of this author aims to determine the employees' work–family conflict levels subject to regional differences within China. Findings reveal that Chinese employees' experiences of work–family conflict related primarily to time constraints. On the other hand, social support helps mitigate the work–family conflict of employees, especially in relation to the Confucian ideology
