Exploring the Impact of Work-Life Balance on Job Satisfaction for Saudi Private Sector C-Level Employees

Abstract

This study examined the relationship between work-life balance (WLB) and job satisfaction among private sector employees in Saudi Arabia. A questionnaire measured WLB, satisfaction, and demographics for 106 C-level employees. Correlation analysis found higher perceived WLB associated with greater job satisfaction. Regression analysis revealed WLB positively predicted satisfaction, indicating implementing WLB policies could potentially improve Saudi employees' performance and retention. Recommendations include offering flexible arrangements like telecommuting and leave time. Findings highlight the need for Saudi private sector employers to prioritize WLB to support employees' satisfaction and sustain workplace effectiveness. Further research can explore WLB's impact across demographics.
