Work-Life Balance and Job Satisfaction among School Teachers: An Empirical Study
Abstract
Work-life balance and job satisfaction are significant factors that have a major influence on the effectiveness of teachers. The aim of the current research is to examine the relationship between work-life balance and job satisfaction among teachers based on various influencing factors such as workload and time management, family and social life, work environment, organizational climate, job security, recognition, and development. The research was based on responses from 50 teachers. Various statistical methods such as percentage analysis, independent sample t-test, one-way ANOVA, and correlation were used to interpret the data. The results of the study revealed that a majority of the respondents experienced a high level of work-life balance and job satisfaction. Almost half of the respondents experienced a high level of workload and time management, as well as family and social life. The results of the independent sample t-test revealed that gender and family type do not affect work-life balance and job satisfaction. Also, the one-way ANOVA analysis results revealed that employee category does not affect these dimensions. The results of the correlation analysis revealed that annual income does not have a significant relationship with work-life balance and job satisfaction. However, the number of classes handled per day was found to have a significant relationship with workload and time management, as well as work-life balance and job satisfaction.
