Abstract:

A multi-phase survey of 310 service employees was made, and SPSS 19.0 and AMOS 17.0 analytic tools were applied to reveal the effect of family-work interface on proactive customer service behavior as well as the regulating effect of service climate. The results showed that family-work enrichment has positive effect on proactive customer service behavior, and family-work balance has positive effect on proactive customer service behavior. Moreover, service climate has negative moderating effect between family-work conflict and proactive customer service behavior, and the positive effect of family-work balance on proactive customer service behavior will be enhanced with the improvement of service climate.

Key words: family-work conflict, family-work enrichment, family-work balance, service climate, proactive customer service behavior
