Objective – Employees’ perception of HR practice is crucial because it can affect individual and organizational outcomes. HR practices may influence the perception employees have of the support that is available to them from the organization, the work-life balance, and the organization’s commitment to their employees. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of perceived HR practices on affective commitment. This study also explores the role of perceived organizational support in mediating work-life balance. Methodology/Technique – This survey was conducted between February – May 2019 using 178 employees ranked as officer (with no managerial position) from various organizations. The mediation analysis using SPSS and Macro Process was used to identify the relationship between the variables. Findings – The results indicate that employee perception of effective HR practice influences employee affective commitment. Further, perceived organizational support and work-life balance can mediate the relationship between those variables. However, the mediation only works if the mediator stands as a separate variable. When both mediators are put together, they do not mediate the relationship. Novelty – Studies concerning human resource (HR) practice and employee work behaviour remains scarce in Indonesia. The practical benefit from this study is to contribute to the knowledge of organizations concerning the implementation of effective HR practice in order to build a sense of supportive and balance in both work and private life. Additionally, both mediators may contribute to the development of affective commitment. Type of Paper: Empirical.

The Relationship

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to analyse the relationship between the participation of women in companies with financial performance. However, this relationship does not arise directly. The authors argue that the participation of women in the company’s staff has a positive effect on the creation of work-life balance (WLB) practices, due to women have traditionally assumed family responsibilities, and subsequently these practices positively affect financial performance. WLB practices are a tool to balance employees’ professional and personal goals.Design/methodology/approachThis study aims to determine whether WLB practices mediate in the relationship between female participation in the workforce and financial performance on large companies listed in the Spanish Stock Exchange Index during the period from 2008 to 2013.FindingsThe main finding is that female participation in the workforce positively affects to the availability of WLB practices, but WLB practices are not a mediator to increase financial performance.Originality/valueThe study is a new contribution for academics and practitioners, since the WLB has a role of moderating variable; and the positive joint effect of female participation and WLB practices is tested over the company’s outcomes, instead of over the individual employee behaviour like in previous literature. In addition, this effect is studied in a country with economic recession where corporate WLB practices have increased in the last decade.

So it can be seen that work family conflict has a negative and not significant effect on life satisfaction. Work engagement has a positive and significant effect on life satisfaction. Work family conflict has a negative and significant effect on work life balance. Work engagement has a positive and significant effect on work life balance. Whereas the work life balance is only Able to mediate the relationship between work engagement and life satisfaction.Suggestions for future research are to develop other variables that can mediate the relationship of work family conflict in the life satisfaction of female nurses, for example social support.

Purpose: - The impact of work-life balance on work-related outcomes has been the focus of much attention by researchers in organizational behavior and psychology. The aim of this study was to extend this literature by examining the potential moderating effect of religiosity on the relationship between satisfaction with work-life balance and job satisfaction. Methodology/Sample: - Data from The European Social Survey (ESS Round 6 Edition 1.2) provided the basis for this study (N= 21621). Findings: - Results suggested that satisfaction with work-life balance was positively related to job satisfaction and religiosity fostered the effect of satisfaction with work-life balance on job satisfaction. Practical Implications:- The findings of this study suggest that religiosity holds relevance to a variety of work outcomes. Faith and involvement in religious activities act as a personal resource, making individuals more resilient to cope with the challenges arising from work-life imbalance.
