摘要：Purpose: Work–life conflict (WLC) is widely recognized as having a significant negative impact on construction management. This research seeks to pinpoint the factors contributing to WLC and review how pandemics impact work–life balance specifically within the construction industry. Design/methodology/approach: A comprehensive literature review was carried out to establish a structured framework and theoretical model addressing WLC in construction. The Hunter–Schmidt meta-analysis paradigm, a robust technique based on the random-effects model, was employed to evaluate this framework due to its efficacy of correcting error. Findings: The results indicate the significant relationships between WLC and several factors, including social support, work demands, job autonomy and schedule control, and role blurring. Conversely, the impact of co-worker support remains ambiguous, as evidenced by the broad confidence intervals. Originality/value: This study introduces a novel theoretical framework for analyzing WLC within the construction sector, addressing sector-specific challenges such as irregular work hours and high-pressure environments. Moreover, it offers practical recommendations for improving health and safety performance in the construction industry. ? 2025, Emerald Publishing Limited.
