Work-Life Equilibrium: Key to Enhancing Employee Job Satisfaction

Abstract

The underlying study aims to explore the relationship between work-life equilibrium and employees' job satisfaction in a private travel agency. This is because some research found that individuals with high work-life equilibrium were in a greater status in their occupations and were emotionally stable. To ensure work-life equilibrium among employees, it is important for public as well as private sector managers to show concern, meaningfulness, and clarification of identities, as these significantly impact their employees. Therefore, the management of private agencies should pay more attention to cultivate and sustain work-life equilibrium among their employees. The study employed quantitative research methods via survey questionnaires to assess the status of employees’ work-life equilibrium and job satisfaction. The study found that there is no noticeable contrast in how men and women view their work-life equilibrium and job satisfaction. Furthermore, variables like gender, age, and job role did not display significant differences in their impact on work-life equilibrium and job satisfaction. The study's correlation and regression analyses verified a statistically meaningful association between work-life equilibrium and employee satisfaction, with correlations proving significant at the 0.01 (2-tailed) level. This provides numerical proof of a favorable correlation between equilibrium and job satisfaction, supplying valuable insights for organizations and policymakers seeking to enhance employee satisfaction through work-life equilibrium initiatives.
