%0 Journal Article %A Gutiérrez Vargas, L.M. %A Alegre, J. %A Pasamar, Susana %T Explaining job satisfaction through the use of work–familybenefits and their impact on the employee’s family context %D 2022 %U http://hdl.handle.net/10433/16614 %X Purpose: This study analyses the relationship between the use of work–family benefits and job satisfaction (JS). Furthermore, it proposes that work-to-family conflict (WFC) and work-to-family enrichment (WFE) play a mediating role in this relationship. The purpose of this paper is to address these issues. Design/methodology/approach: Data are gathered from 1,051 employees of Colombian organisations. Partial least squares path modelling is used. Findings: The results show that the perception of WFE to a greater extent and the WFC perception, to a lesser extent, are significant mediators in the relationship between the use of benefits and JS. Practical implications: This study justifies investments and initiatives on the adoption and promotion of work–family benefits. Moreover, it provides practical clues on how to boost JS: WFC and WFE are variables to be considered. Originality/value: This study proposes a multiple mediation model to analyse the relationship between the actual use of work–family benefits and JS from a family perspective. It contributes to the literature in examining antecedents of JS, highlighting the role of WFE. %K Job satisfaction %K Work-to-family conflict %K Work-to-family enrichment %K Work–family balance %K Work–family benefits %~
