This study emphasizes the importance of work-family enrichment and focuses on job satisfaction and life satisfaction to explain the effects of work-family enrichment. A questionnaire survey was conducted on employees of domestic companies and 280 responses were used for analysis. The analysis showed that work-to-family enrichment had positive effects on both job satisfaction and life satisfaction. And at the same time, family-to-work enrichment also showed positive effects on both job satisfaction and life satisfaction. Further, the results show that work-to-family enrichment had a greater effect on job satisfaction, and family-to-work enrichment had a greater effect on life satisfaction. Finally, the results also showed that the interaction between work-to-family enrichment and family-to-work enrichment did not have a significant effect on job satisfaction or life satisfaction.
