The present correlation study was aimed to examine the relationship between work-family conflict and job satisfaction among female teachers in the universities of Lahore. The population of the study was female teachers of public and private universities in Lahore City. The total number of female university teachers was one thousand four hundred and ninetyseven. Four hundred and fifty female university teachers (30% of the total population) were selected as a sample of the study. The questionnaire developed by Carlson, Kacmar, & Wayne (2000) was used to measure work-family conflict, and the questionnaire developed by Hayat (1998) was used to measure job satisfaction. Multiple regression, independent sample t-test and one-way ANOVA were used to analyze the data. Independent sample t-test was applied to compare the two groups, such as type of institution, and One-way ANOVA was used to compare the groups on the basis of designation of the teachers. Major findings revealed that there was a significant and negative relationship between work-family conflict and job satisfaction. It was recommended that training, seminars should be arranged for teachers to deal with their work and familyrelated problems.
