| Keywords: | Work-Life Balance, Work-Family Conflict, Work-Family Enrichment, Work-Life Initiatives, Time-based conflict, Strain-based conflict, Behavior-based conflict | Abstract: | This study aims to explore and identify the ICT-based employees’ issues and perceptions of work-life balance in the context of Nepal. The respondents were from well-established software development companies assigned to various department/position in Nepal. Self-administered questionnaires were used to collect the data. Factor Analysis discovered five factors: (1) time-based conflict; (2) strain-based conflict; (3) behavior-based conflict; (4) causes and consequences of work-family conflicts (WFCs); and (5) work-family enrichment (WEF). The ICT-based employees had experienced time-based, strain-based and behavior-based WFCs in their workplaces with consequent negative impacts on their work, family, physical and psychological health outcomes. The employees generally perceived that their work and life are not balanced in their workplace.
The findings suggest that time-based conflict, strain-based conflict and causes and consequences of WFCs are negatively correlated with the overall perception of work-life balance among employees while work-life enrichment is positively correlated with work-life balance. Thus, WFCs have not spared the Nepal ICT-based industries and the employees need work-family enrichment (WFE). Work-life initiatives are recommended to increase work-life balance, improve the position of ICT-based organizations as an employer choice, and retain and attract better quality workers. | Curricular : | BBA/MBA | Record link: | http://libsearch.siu.ac.th/siu/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=27404 |
