Work-Life Balance Of Employees At Sree Mookambika Cancer Centre, Kuleshekaram

Abstract

The need for employees to strike a balance between their professional and personal lives has become a major concern in the health care industry because of the rigors of employment, schedules, and stress. This research work focuses on analysing the work-life balance of the employees at Sree Mookambika Cancer Centre (SMCC), Kuleshekaram in an effort to identify the key factors which effect the employees’ ability to manage their professional and personal responsibilities. Data used in the research are primary data and secondary data, primary data are obtained by using structured questionnaires while secondary data are obtained from the journals, articles and institutional reports. The study utilizes statistical analysis like factor analysis, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis to analyze the relationship between variables and identify the most important factors that impact work-life balance. The results show that a large part of the employees suffer from imbalance because of heavy workload, shift work, time pressure and organization constraints. The lack of flexible working hours and poor sleep was also noted as contributing factors to stress and poor well-being, as was the high level of emotional involvement in the care of patients. Finally, the study suggests the need for flexible work schedules, stress management programs, and employee wellness initiatives to help achieve a healthier work-life balance. These measures will not only benefit the well-being of employees, but also help to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the organization.
