Abstract

The pursuit of work-life balance (WLB) has become a critical concern in modern organizations due to its impact on employee well-being and organizational effectiveness. This study examined the availability and effectiveness of organizational strategies such as flexible work arrangements, parental leave, and wellness programs, and their influence on employee well-being. Using a quantitative, cross-sectional, correlational research design, data were collected from 450 employees across private-sector organizations through a structured questionnaire adapted from validated scales. The findings revealed that WLB strategies were positively perceived and significantly associated with job satisfaction, organizational support, and overall well-being. While no gender differences were observed, variations emerged across job levels, age groups, qualifications, and work experience, with senior, mid-career, and highly qualified employees reporting more favorable outcomes. These results suggest that organizational WLB policies must be tailored to diverse employee needs. Strengthening inclusivity and continuous monitoring of WLB initiatives can enhance employee well-being, reduce stress, and foster sustainable organizational performance.
