Work-Life Balance in Generation Z Employees

Abstract

Work-Life Balance is one of the factors that can make Generation Z employees willing to stay or actively engage in their work. The purpose of this study is to identify the life domains that are considered important by Generation Z employees and to provide an overview of work-life balance among Generation Z employees. This study employed a descriptive analysis design to understand the work-life balance among Generation Z employees. An online survey was conducted using a convenience sampling technique, and a total of 50 respondents from Generation Z employees were obtained. Data collection in the survey utilized two questionnaires, namely the life domain questionnaire and the work interference with life domains scale. The results of the descriptive analysis in this study indicate that the work-life balance of Generation Z employees is still disrupted, with a high percentage of 26% categorized as high, 62% categorized as moderate, and the remaining 12% categorized as low. Generation Z employees also consider Health, Family, and Family Management as the most important aspects of their life domains. Additionally, it was found that work-related interference equally affects Generation Z employees, regardless of gender or marital status.
