Given the burgeoning literature on the workfamily nexus, the dearth of scholarship on satisfaction with work-life balance is surprising. In this paper, we use multi-level models to build on the Demand-Resource model to predict satisfaction with work-life balance among partnered individuals in 26 European countries (N = 7,990). We find support for individual-level measures of work and non-work lives influencing work-life balance satisfaction. We also document how nation-level gender inequality moderates the influence of family-to-work conflict on satisfaction with work-life balance. The results demonstrate the importance of investigating the work-family nexus within and across national contexts, yielding implications for understanding the 21st century family
