Abstract

According to women’s lack of entry into senior positions, this study focuses on ‘Career Aspiration’, which is one of the essential factors for female workers to become high-level positions in the organization. In particular, female workers with children are known to have weaker career aspirations. In this study, we focused on the work-family spillover which explains the work-family interaction to find the key factors of low aspiration. Also, the effect of family support and the work-family balance policies was included to widen the research of key factors as well. For analysis, data of 369 full-time female employees with children among the 6th year(2016) Korean Women Manager Panel from the Korean Women’s Development Institute were used, and the results are as follows. First, the recognition of positive family-work spillover and negative work-family spillover increased female workers’ career aspirations, and negative family-work spillover recognition decreased female workers’ career aspiration. Second, family support partially had a positive moderating effect on the relationship between work-family spillover recognition and career aspiration. In the case of a work-family balance policies, a positive moderating effect occured only on the negative work-family transfer recognition. In conclusion, this study clarifies the concepts between work-family and family-work spillover more clearly, and empirically identifies factors affecting women’s career aspirations.
