This study examined the relationships between teachers' work-leisure conflict, work satisfaction, turnover intention, and task performance. A total of 485 responses collected from school teachers in Singapore were used for data analysis. Results indicated that work-to-leisure conflict negatively influenced work satisfaction and positively influenced turnover intention, while leisure-to-work conflict had a negative effect on task performance only. Work satisfaction was found to be negatively associated with turnover intention but positively associated with task performance. This study contributes to existing literature surrounding the importance of work-life balance for teachers and further discusses the practical implications brought about by these results for teachers in Singapore.
