Abstract
Background & Aim: It is a long time that human science researchers, especially industrial and organizational experts have noticed the importance of work-family conflict as a substantive and essential foundation for proficiency of organizational processes and job satisfaction.

The sample (n=220) was recruited by stratified random sampling method. Data was collected by Netemeyer (1996) Work-Family Conflict questionnaire, Maslach & Jackson (1981) burnout questionnaire and Kamant et al., (1979) turnover questionnaire and analyzed by descriptive statistics , and correlation coefficient Pearson and regression analysis using SPSS-PC (v. 19) .
