Summary/Abstract: This paper presents data from an empirical study, specifically from a factor analysis. Seven groups of role conflict impact factors are identified from a Likert scale used for statements with five-step responses. A scale comprised of 28 statements by House and Rizzo (1970) was used for providing a combined role conflict divided into: conflict related to 'job duties', conflict in 'role performance' and conflict in 'expected outcome' and had a Cronbach's Alpha value of 0.952. The factorial results obtained from the study identified high levels of role conflict among the staff (n = 57) of the examined manifacturing organization.
