Although the role of flexibility has been studied in previous studies it is novel to compare types of flexibility among mothers in Turkey. Participants were asked to complete a 15 minutes online survey. One hundred and fifty employed mothers who have at least one child age of 6 or younger were participated. In order to test the hypothesis linear regression analyses were conducted. Results showed that for work-family conflict, temporal flexibility is important whereas for family-work conflict operational flexibility is much more important.
