Using conservation of resources theory, this multi-source study examines the association between perceived family responsibility discrimination and work-life conflict as mediated by emotional exhaustion. Employee gender and power distance values are tested as moderators of the perceived family responsibility discrimination to emotional exhaustion relationship. Results suggest that male employees who perceive family responsibility discrimination from their supervisor and hold high power distance values experience increased emotional exhaustion and work-life conflict. Female workers who perceive family responsibility discrimination from their supervisor experience increased emotional exhaustion and work-life conflict regardless of whether they have high or low power distance. Findings are consistent with theory-based predictions from conservation of resources theory: resources that are valued and not provided in the work context deplete emotional energies and ultimately trigger work-life conflict. Findings build on the work-life literature by introducing gender and power distance as factors that shape when employees feel the draining effects of family responsibility discrimination.\nKeywords: family responsibility discrimination; work-life conflict; power distance; gender; emotional exhaustion; conservation of resources\n\u000f\nThe existence of dual-earning families (Bellavia and Frone, 2005) and the growing presence of men as caregivers and women as breadwinners (Bianchi and Milkie, 2010; Council of Economic Advisers, 2014; Perrone, Wright, and Jackson, 2009) suggest that men and women both experience work-life conflict (Rehel and Baxter, 2015). Work-life conflict, “a particular type of inter-role conflict in which pressures from the work role are incompatible with the pressures from the [life outside of work] role” (Thomas and Ganster, 1995, p. 7) is associated with higher turnover intentions and higher job dissatisfaction (Allen, 2001; Thompson, Beauvais, and Lyness, 1999). This may be particularly likely for employees who perceive negative career consequences associated with managing family responsibilities and for organizations that lack family-specific workplace support (Anderson, Coffey, and Byerly, 2002).\nFamily responsibility discrimination reports have increased by 400% over the past decade (Calvert, 2010). This presents both practical and ethical issues for organizations, because discrimination is not only legally but also morally wrong (Demuijnck, 2009).
