Work-family conflict research has focused almost exclusively on professional, White adults. The goal of this article was to expand the understanding of culture and industry in shaping experiences and consequences of work-family conflict. Using in-depth interview data (n = 26) and structured survey data (n = 200) from immigrant Latinos employed in the poultry processing industry, the authors evaluated predictions drawn from emerging models emphasizing the influence of cultural characteristics such as collectivism and gender ideology on work-family conflict. Results indicated that immigrant Latinos in poultry processing experienced infrequent work-to-family conflict; both the level and the antecedents of work-to-family conflict differed by gender, with physical demands contributing to greater conflict for women but not men. In addition, there was little evidence that work-family conflict was associated with health in this population. These results demonstrate how traditional models of work-family conflict need to be modified to reflect the needs and circumstances of diverse workers in the new global economy.
工作与家庭冲突的研究几乎完全集中在白人职业成年人身上。本文的目的是拓展对文化和行业在塑造工作与家庭冲突的经历及后果方面的理解。作者利用来自家禽加工业的拉丁裔移民的深度访谈数据（n = 26）和结构化调查数据（n = 200），评估了新兴模型所做出的预测，这些模型强调集体主义和性别意识形态等文化特征对工作与家庭冲突的影响。结果表明，从事家禽加工的拉丁裔移民经历工作对家庭冲突的频率较低；工作对家庭冲突的程度和成因因性别而异，体力要求给女性带来了更大的冲突，而对男性则不然。此外，几乎没有证据表明工作与家庭冲突与该群体的健康状况有关。这些结果表明，传统的工作与家庭冲突模型需要如何修改，以反映新全球经济中不同工人的需求和情况。
