Work-Life Balance, Employee Well-Being, Job Satisfaction, and Subjective Well-Being Among Corporate Employees in Karnataka

Abstract This study examined the interrelationships among work-life balance (WLB), employee well-being (EWB), job satisfaction (JS), and subjective well-being (SWB) among 120 corporate employees in Karnataka, India. A quantitative, cross-sectional, ex post facto design was employed. The sample was equally distributed by gender (60 male, 60 female) and mode of work (40 offline, 40 hybrid, 40 online). Standardized instruments—the Work-Life Balance Scale (Hayman, 2005), Job Satisfaction Survey (Spector, 1994), Employee Well-Being Scale (Pradhan & Hati, 2019), and Satisfaction with Life Scale (Diener et al., 1985)—were administered. Pearson correlations revealed strong positive associations among all four constructs (r = .691 to .851, p < .01). One-way ANOVA demonstrated that hybrid workers reported significantly higher WLB, EWB, and JS than online and offline workers (p < .001). Male employees reported significantly higher WLB and JS than females (p < .05; p < .001), while no significant gender differences emerged for EWB or SWB. Subjective well-being remained invariant across all grouping variables. None of the four gender × work-mode interaction hypotheses were supported, indicating additive rather than synergistic effects. Findings have implications for organizational policy, particularly regarding the institutionalization of hybrid work models and gender-sensitive workplace interventions.
