Abstract

This research aims to identfy the impact of workplace telepressure on work-family conflict among teachers in private schools in Damietta Governorate. Additionally, it examines the moderating role of workplace fear of missing out in this relationship. The research was conducted on sample of 254 private school teachers, and the research hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling PLS-SEM. The results of the statistical analysis revealed a significant positive effect of workplace telepressure on work-family conflict among the study sample, and that workplace fear of missing out was found to play a moderating role in the relationship between workplace telepressure and work-family conflict. The study provides evidence that workplace fear of missing out plays an influential role in exacerbating the positive effect of workplace telepressure on work-family conflict. Considering these results, this study presents a set of recommendations that would assist decision-makers in the private schools. Additionally, the study suggests proposals for future research.
