Work-family Conflict Scale (Carlson, Kacmar, & Williams, 2000) and Maslach Burnout Inventory (Maslach & Jackson, 1986) were administered on the present sample. A purposive sample of lecturers (N = 200) including male (n = 100) and female (n = 100) was selected from different colleges of Faisalabad Division. Age range of the sample was 26-60 years (M = 41.20). Pearson correlation was applied to study the relationship among study variables. The findings of the study indicate that Work-family conflict has significant positive correlation with emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, personal accomplishment, and burnout. Time-based conflict, strain-based conflict, and behavior-based conflict exhibited significant positive correlation with emotional exhaustion, depersonalization of others, reduced personal accomplishment, and overall burnout.
