The objective of the present study was to empirically examine the effects of work−family conflict, job stress, and job satisfaction on seafarer performance. Data were collected from merchant ship seafarers in the Yangshan Port, Shanghai, China (<i>n</i> = 337). A data analysis was performed using hierarchical regression analysis. The research results revealed that work−family conflict and job stress negatively affects seafarer self-reported performance, while job satisfaction positively influences seafarer job performance. Findings also show that job satisfaction plays a moderating role in the relationships between work−family conflict, job stress and seafarer performance. Our findings demonstrate that work−family conflict, job stress and job satisfaction manifested are significant predictors for seafarer performance. Important applications and implications are provided for managers and researchers.https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/17/7/2191work–family conflictstressseafarerperformancesafety
