“Work-Life Balance, Job Satisfaction, and Employee Retention: A Triangular Approach”

Abstract

This paper examines the interrelated dynamics of work-life balance, job satisfaction, and employee retention through a triangular framework, emphasizing their impact on organizational success. As employees increasingly prioritize flexible work arrangements, work-life balance has emerged as a critical factor in today's workplace. Simultaneously, job satisfaction is vital in individual performance and organizational outcomes. Employee retention remains a critical concern, particularly in industries with high turnover rates. This study synthesizes existing literature, identifies the key factors that impact each element, and discusses strategies for organizations to harmonize these aspects for improved performance and reduced turnover. Through a comprehensive review of empirical studies and theoretical frameworks, this research demonstrates how balancing these three factors can lead to a more satisfied, loyal, and productive workforce.
