Abstract (2. Language): 
Work and family conflict (WFC) is an inevitable fact for employees and especially for police officers. In this study, the impact of two job related factors (shift work and supervisor support) and individual-related factors (demographics; age, gender, and the number of children) on WFC were examined. Data for this study came from a general employee satisfaction survey of the Diyarbakir Police Department (DPD), in Turkey. Using Bivariate Correlation and Multivariate Regression methods, it was found that for only rank-andfile officers, age is significantly related to WFC; However, for ranked officers, they are not. There is no relationship between gender and WFC. The ranked officers who are available on call 24 hours a day experience more WFC than officers who work between 8am and 5pm. Lastly, supervisor support is a significant and important predictor of work and family conflict for both ranked and rank-and-file officers.
Abstract (Original Language): 
İş ve aile çatışması sorunu, çalışanlar ve özellikle polisler için kaçınılmaz bir olgudur. Bu çalışmada iş ve aile çatışması üzerine işle ilgili iki faktörün (vardiya sistemi ile çalışma ve amir desteği) ve bireysel faktörlerin (yaş, cinsiyet ve çocuk sayısı gibi demografik özelliklerin) etkisi incelenmiştir. Çalışma ile ilgili veriler Diyarbakır Emniyet Müdürlüğü tarafından gerçekleştirilen Çalışan Memnuniyeti Anketi’nden elde edilmiştir. Bivariate Korelasyon ve Multivariate Regrasyon teknikleri kullanılarak elde edilen sonuçlara göre rütbesiz polisler açısından yaş önemli, ancak rütbeliler açısından önemsiz bir faktördür. Cinsiyet, iş ve aile çatışması arasında bir ilişki yoktur. 24 saat telefonla ulaşılabilinen rütbeli polisler, sabah 8 akşam 5 arası çalışanlara göre daha çok iş ve aile çatışması yaşamaktadırlar. Son olarak, Amir desteği hem rütbeli hem de rütbesiz polisler için önemli bir faktör olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır.
