| Summary: | The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between work social support
and work-life balance in hotel industry. A total number of 87 respondents were selected
from a medium-scale hotel located in Kuching, Sarawak. A correlational research
design was used in this study with a quantitative method. The result generated by a
Pearson Correlation test showed there are positive relationships between all the three
independent variables and work-life balance; organizational support (r=+0.44),
supervisor support (r=+0.41) and colleagues support (r=+0.45). The significant
value (r) concluded the strength of these three relationships is moderate. Based on
these findings, several contributions are further discusses. Some recommendations
were also suggested for the employer or organization, human resources practitioner
and future researcher to encourage work-life balance practice in the workplace. |
