Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 科技應用與人力資源發展學系 === 104 === In a competitive business environment, how to retain outstanding employees is an issue that every enterprise needs to face. Nowadays, the employees are more concerned with the job content and the quality of life. Therefore, this study aims to examine how work-life balance impacts on employees’ job satisfaction and intent to stay.
This study involved 280 valid samples from six technology companies. A questionnaire was conducted and results indicated that:
1. The employees with different backgrounds, including age
under 25, single, without children, working under 40
hours per week and without responsibility, have better
perception of work-life balance.
2. Work-life balance has significant positive effect on job
satisfaction.
3. Work-life balance has significant positive effect on
intent to stay.
4. Job satisfaction has significant positive effect on
intent to stay.
5. Job satisfaction fully mediates the association between
work-life balance and intent to stay.
Based on the results, it is suggested that companies should understand the need of employees with different backgrounds, including age, marriage status, the number of children, working hours per week and responsibility. The companies should accordingly establish work-life balance policies and provide assistance to enhance employees’ work-life balance. Besides, for future studies, we suggest discussing employees’ motives in different generation and the factors that affect work-life balance to effectively provide welfare policy for different employees.
