Research Articles

  • Work–Life Balance: Weighing the Importance of Work–Family and Work–Health Balance | Andrea Gragnano, Silvia Simbula & Massimo Miglioretti (2020)
    • The aim of this study was to investigate the importance of other nonworking domains in the Work-Life-Balance(WLB) with a particular focus on health. Moreover, the importance of the effects of the work–family balance (WFB) and the work–health balance (WHB) on job satisfaction was investigated. Finally, it explored how the effects of the WFB and the WHB on job satisfaction change according to worker characteristics (age, gender, parental status, and work ability). The results highlight the importance of the health domain in the WLB and stresses that it is crucial to consider the specificity of different groups of workers when considering the WLB.
