Work–family conflict (WFC) is a worldwide and timeless dilemma that negatively significantly impacts the performance of employees, families, organizations. It intensifies when career engineering, employee female, job environment requires heavy-duty field tasks. The present study investigates WFC in an engineering for female engineers studies many women-related issues Yemen. Three questionnaires targeted 130 engineer graduates, 60 senior engineers, 20 engineers’ husbands. results indicated marriage strongly correlated to educational performance, opportunities, continuity. suggests that, conservative societies, disruptions from family-to-work are more pronounced compared work-to-family. Several external factors, including low stipends, economic downturns, political crises, have negative impact on opportunities spillover. A significant finding revealed average wage Yemen USD 145, which 3.822 times lower than their male counterparts. survey only single but not married currently employed industrial construction sector. Most graduates working jobs unrelated engineering. Employed females face balancing professional responsibilities, household tasks, social commitments.

Serious concerns have been raised over the consistent academic underperformance of Yemeni students at almost all levels university studies. This paper investigates impact various socioeconomic factors on performance engineering in Taiz State, Yemen, an impoverished and unstable society. Our quantitative methodology employed a 5-point Likert scale questionnaire targeted 596 female/male from three colleges State. Data were analyzed using SPSS software simple multiple regression models to examine variables achievement while moderating financial condition gender. study measured through GPAs, student attendance, English level. Many influences examined against performance, such as gender, family income, stability, openness, marital status, co-education, part-time jobs, stimulant use. The results accurately specified that students’ gender considerably impacts studied variables; moreover, low-income features families negatively affect performance. outcome this indicated matched well with GPA, attendance rate, level, but higher matching rate. highlights societies, like are significantly affected by factors. It recommends coordinated efforts among government authorities, educational institutions, community leaders mitigate negative implement appropriate technologies enhance Additionally, conducting similar studies other disciplines communities within country is recommended for deeper understanding issue.
