Implication

Meta-analysis reveals family-supportive supervisor behaviors influence performance via social exchange and reduce burnout via resource pathways in employees, highlighting distinct mechanisms.

Key Points

Synthesize the antecedents and outcomes of family-supportive supervisor behaviors (FSSBs) and evaluate the relative explanatory power of social-exchange versus resource-based mediating mechanisms.
Conducted a bivariate meta-analysis and meta-analytic structural equation modeling (MASEM).
Synthesized data from 231 primary studies across 213 sources, representing N = 118,100 participants.
Tested two mediating theoretical perspectives: the resource-based view (work-family conflict and enrichment) and the social-exchange perspective (leader-member exchange).
Social-exchange mechanisms account for a greater proportion of the positive effect of FSSBs on work outcomes, specifically in-role performance and job satisfaction.
The resource-based perspective predominantly explains the beneficial influence of FSSBs on employee wellbeing by mitigating burnout.
