| 总结: | The main purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between work and family-related factors: job stress, job commitment, job satisfaction, and family involvement in the work-life balance (WLB) among office workers in Malaysia. Spillover theory was used to support the connection between job factors and WLB, where the job factors will either have a positive or negative spillover to life, which brings affects the balance between the two domains. The sample of this study consisted of 404 office workers from organizations in Malaysia’s capital city. Data were collected through an online questionnaire survey were analyzed by using various statistical techniques. The findings indicated that job stress was negatively related to work-life balance, while job commitment, job satisfaction, and family involvement were positively related to work-life balance. This research provided relevant evidence that work and family-related factors have spillover to work-life balance, in both negative and positive ways. Thus, this research is helpful for policymakers to enhance the employees’ work-life balance by improving from the job aspect to enable a balancing work and life equilibrium. |
