Job crafting has been shown to be associated with multiple positive work-related outcomes. However, whether and how it affects nonwork-related outcomes has been less examined. Grounded on the resource-gain-development perspective and conservation of resources theory, the present study investigated the effects of job crafting on employee life satisfaction via work-nonwork facilitation and work-nonwork conflict. Further, the present study examined the moderating roles of workload on these relationships. We collected two waves of data with a 1-month lag from 481 fulltime Chinese employees. The results of regression analyses revealed that job crafting was positively related to employee life satisfaction through higher work-nonwork facilitation and lower work-nonwork conflict. In addition, these indirect effects were stronger for employees with higher workload than those with lower workload. The results extend job crafting research by examining the effects of job crafting on employee life satisfaction and have clear applied value for employers who have high workload.
