本研究调查四种类型的家庭友好政策的相对影响儿童保育补贴，带薪休假照顾家人，远程工作，和替代性工作机会的周转率和有效性在联邦机构。当代社会交换理论预测，一个机构的平均水平的满意度与一个具体的家庭友好的政策是负相关的营业额在该机构，但与整体业绩呈正相关。这一分析不同于一般的预期。只有儿童保育补贴显示出积极的，显著的影响，减少营业额。儿童保育补贴和替代工作时间表反映了对机构效率的积极和重大影响。具有讽刺意味的是，一个机构对远程工作安排的平均满意度被证明是对业绩的一个重大但负面的影响。
This study investigates the relative effects of four types of family-friendly policies—child care subsidies, paid leave for family care, telework, and alternative work schedules—on turnover rates and effectiveness in federal agencies. Contemporary social exchange theory predicts that an agency’s average level of satisfaction with a specific family-friendly policy is negatively associated with turnover in the agency but positively associated with overall performance. This analysis differs from common expectations. Only child care subsidies show a positive, significant influence on reducing turnover. Child care subsidies and alternative work schedules reflect positive and significant influences on agency effectiveness. Ironically, an agency’s average satisfaction with telework arrangements proves to be a significant but negative effect on performance.
