Exploratory analysis reveals key factors affecting job satisfaction and work-life balance in construction workers, suggesting essential improvements.
Work-life balance is an idea that focuses on the need to manage work obligations in relation to personal life to promote well-being. This philosophy is based on the belief that employees are important assets to an organization, worthy of respect, dignity, and the chance to contribute meaningfully. The research delves into the factors affecting work-life balance in construction workers in Wayanad District. Through exploratory factor analysis, the study finds determinants that influence the work-life balance of construction workers such as job environment, pay, opportunities for personal development, and employment security. Regression analysis also identifies that these determinants, especially pay, job environment, and employment security, positively influence the job satisfaction and work-life balance of construction workers. The research indicates that satisfying workers' needs by enhancing remuneration packages, a favorable work environment, and personal development opportunities can contribute extensively to their work-life balance. It is imperative for the construction sector of Wayanad to strive towards establishing a good work-to-personal life balance in order to enhance job satisfaction and productivity.
