Work and family conflict has accumulated rich findings for more than 30 years. This study focused on ―family-to-work conflict‖（FWC）, which has not received as much attention as ―work-to-family conflict‖, encompassing antecedents and consequences from work and family domains. Moreover, the moderating effects of self-efficacy were also examined. The current study collected data at two different time points. With a sample of 279 full-time employees from multiple organizations and occupations, we found that workload and family conflict were important predictors of FWC. On the other hand, family satisfaction was important outcome of FWC. Regarding moderating effects, self-efficacy impacted the relationship between family conflict and FWC, and that between FWC and family satisfaction. Implications for management and future research are discussed.
