The aim of this study is to investigate the role of employee engagement as a mediator between the High-Performance Work System and the Service-Oriented Organizational Citizenship Behavior (Service-Oriented OCB). Furthermore, work-life balance as a moderator, the impact Service-Oriented OCB on customer satisfaction will be investigated. This study employs a quantitative methodology for which questionnaires were distributed to sixty restaurants in Karachi, and a sample of 418 responses was collected for structural equation modeling analysis. Smart PLS software was used to analyze the structure model. The results show that HPWS has a positive impact on Service-Oriented OCB. It is assumed that the role of work engagement as a mediator between HPWS and Service-Oriented OCB is significant. This study found that Service-Oriented OCB has a positive impact on customer satisfaction. Work-life balance was also found to have a moderating influence. The findings confirmed the black box mechanism and the HPWS procedures in restaurants. This study suggests implementing effective HPWS practices to influence employees' work engagement, which leads to Service-Oriented OCB and employees being able to optimize their performance to influence customer satisfaction. The study contributes to the existing body of knowledge in human resource management.

This study attempts to examine the effect of family friendly work policies on the work-family balance of employed married women with young children. While previous research has investigated the effects of family friendly work policies, the effects has often been confounded with the effects of other covariates such as worker's and workplace's characteristics. In this study, we try to distinguish the effects of the family friendly work policies from those of other covariates. We draw a sample of 131 employed married women with children under age 12 from the $2^{nd}$ National Korean Family Survey. We compare the level of work-famiy balance of the women by the type of workplace: public sector, large enterprise, medium enterprise, and small enterprise. The results of this study show that some of the differences in the work-family balance of the women working in the different type of workplace can be attributed to socio-demographic background of the women and the work characteristics of workplace. There is, however, an effect of family friendly policies on the work-family balance between those who work in public sector and in medium enterprise after controlling the effects of the covariates.

Background: To identify work-family balance and level of happiness among married women dental hygienists in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province. The goal of this study is to use the outcome as basic data to determine the compatibility of dental hygienists with work and family, systems, and improvement of happiness levels. Methods: From July 3 to August 10, 2020, 250 dental hygienists in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province were targeted. The questionnaire comprised 65 questions, including general characteristics (perception of work-family balance, perception of work-family balance system, job satisfaction, parenting type, happiness level) whether or not they were implemented. The results were obtained through a self-control questionnaire. Results: The perception of work-family balance was significantly different in job rank and average income, while that of the work-family balance system had significant differences in workplace type, total work experience, current job work experience, childcare system status, and parental leave period. Happiness level and job satisfaction were significantly different in job rank, average income, and childcare system status. Additionally, the perception of work-family balance and that of the work-family balance system showed a positive correlation with job satisfaction and happiness level. Finally, the perception of married women dental hygienists toward work-family compatibility was determined, where the higher the satisfaction with the job, the higher the level of happiness. Conclusion: To improve the work-family balance and job satisfaction of dental hygienists and their levels of happiness, changes in social perception and improvement of the working environment such as proper staffing, flexible work systems, and incentive systems should be considered.

This study aimed for in-depth observation of the status quo of the youth generation's happiness utilizing the Better Life Index and the World Value Survey. To serve this purpose, the study selected 11 of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development(OECD) member countries (Australia, Estonia, Germany, Japan, Korea, Mexico, New Zealand, Poland, Sweden, Turkey, United States) that overlapped with the subject countries of the World Value Survey. The results of the observation first revealed that among the work-life balance levels of youth generations from across the 11 studied countries, the level for Korean youth was in a very poor state. Second, the happiness level of Korean youth also sat among the bottom ranks, with the aspects of politics, friendship, and career casting a heavy influence on importance to life; specifically, the youth generations of Turkey and Germany showed high levels of life purpose, while Korean youth displayed outstanding results in the challenge aspect. The third finding of this study reported that family, religion, power, benevolence, and challenge were commonly related to the happiness level of youth generations in countries with a higher work-life balance. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the much needed attention and support for improving the happiness level of the Korean youth generation, who will eventually play the leading role in our future society.

The purpose of this research was, first, to classify work-life satisfaction among married wage workers aged 20-59 years into several distinct types based on two dimensions of work and life, using data from the 20th(2017) wave of the Korean Labor & Income Panel Study. Second, the study aimed to assess the differences in socio-demographic characteristics (sex, age, educational level, average monthly income), and workplace-related variables (weekly working hours, full-time employment, job stability, business type, family-friendly leave policies) by work-life satisfaction type. Accordingly, four types of work-life satisfaction were identified: work-life satisfaction, work-life dissatisfaction, work satisfaction, and life satisfaction. There was a significant difference in the type of work-life satisfaction among married waged workers based on sex, age, educational level, and average monthly income. Additionally, there was a significant difference in the type of work-life satisfaction for all workplace-related variables, namely, weekly working hours, full-time employment, job stability, business type, and family-friendly leave policies. In particular, proportionally higher values of work-life satisfaction were evident among the workers in companies with family-friendly leave policies such as paid leave, menstrual leave, maternity leave, childcare leave, and family events leave, whereas there was a high rate of work-life dissatisfaction among the workers in companies without family-friendly leave policies.

The main objective of this study was to examine the effects of family-friendly culture in various organizations in the private sectors on employee self-reported work-family balance and qualities of lives. It also attempted to clarify whether employee perceived work-family culture would vary according to size and type of organization, gender, and dual career partnership. The data came from 365 married full-time workers employed in a wide variety of organizations located in Seoul and GyeongGi-Do. The major findings of this study were as follows: Work-family culture was perceived more family-friendly in large-sized organizations and consumer industries. Female employees and workers in dual-career partnerships perceived the work-family culture of their organizations less family-friendly. The hierarchical multiple regression analyses revealed that firm size, supervisory support for employees' family activities, and the perception of negative career development opportunities as a consequence of utilizing family-friendly policies significantly predicted employees' work-family balance and qualities of lives, while organizational time demands having no significant effects on them. The implications of study results were discussed.

This study will examine the relationship between social support from the work and family domains, referred to as multiple social network ties (MSNT), and employees' job and family-related performance outcomes during the COVID-19 crisis. The study also demonstrates the importance of employees' work-family balance (WFB) in moderating the association between MSNT and job and family-related performance. A two-wave design was used to collect data from 320 managerial level personnel in Pakistan's textile sector. The path analysis technique of structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to analyze the responses. In times of crisis, social support mechanisms could potentially replace organizational support mechanisms for employees dealing with work and family obligations, according to the study. The findings of this study show that work-family balance is a significant partial mediator between MSNT and employees' job and family-related outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a best-fit model. This research supports the pragmatic view of MSNT's action mechanism in generating jobs for employees and family-related results, especially in uncertain situations. According to the findings, employees who have a positive work-life balance are happier and more productive in both work and personal life. It has major implications for human resource management (HRM) research and practice.

Korean workplaces can and should reflect the realities of the 21st century workforce. Leading companies try to plan and implement family-friendly policies for their employees, but most of them in fact do not offer family-friendly policies or offer only a few such policies. Therefore, this study seeks to suggest policies that can lead to better family-friendly cultures at workplaces. A family-friendly company culture allows for a better work-life balance, including flexible schedules and generous family-leave policies. This study suggests a family-friendly committee for work-life balance and a role for the government as a leading organization.

최근 MZ세대의 사회진출과 여성인구의 사회참여로 WLB을 중시하는 직장내 그룹은 협업을 중시하던 기존 그룹과 업무지향점의 차이로 갈등이 발생하고 있다. 일·생활 균형 지원제도를 활용하고 있는 공공기관 및 기업은 업무성격과 일·생활 균형 지원제도의 활성화에 따라서 직무몰입에 차이를 보인다. 이에 따라, 회사에서 실질적으로 운영중인 WLB 지원제도의 효과성을 검증하고 보편타당한 기준을 제시하는 것이 필요하다. 일·생활 균형 수준 향상을 위한 제도는 남녀 노동자의 일·가정 양립 여건을 제고하고 MZ세대의 직장에 대한 이상적 가치관과 부합하며, 융통성 있는 경력 설계를 가능하게 해 여성의 노동시장 탈락을 예방하고, 일자리 나누기를 통한 일자리 창출 효과가 있다. 또한, MZ세대의 사회진출과 여성인구(Working Mom)의 사회참여로 WLB을 중시하는 직장내 그룹은 협업을 중시하는 기존 직장 그룹과 업무지향점의 차이로 갈등이 발생하고 있다. 회사 및 조직은 유연근무제도 등 일·생활 균형과 업무성격에 따라서 직무몰입에 차이를 보인다. 이에 공공기관 및 중견·대기업에서 실제 운영 중인 WLB를 위한 제도의 효과성을 검증하여 보편타당한 WLB 지원제도의 합의점을 도출하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 첫째, 근로환경에 대한 정책과 인식이 변화하는 가운데 일·생활 균형을 위한 지원제도의 효과성을 검증하고 실무적 합의점을 찾고자 하였으며, 둘째, 일·생활 균형 수준 및 업무성격에 따른 직무몰입 영향을 분석하여 업무 특성을 반영한 WLB 운영에 대한 기준을 마련하기 위한 상호간의 영향을 검증하였다. 연구를 위해 일·생활 균형 수준과 업무 성격이 직무몰입에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 2x2 매트릭스 모형으로 구성하여 상호간 관계를 분석하였으며, 4가지 갈등형, 주도형, 동조형, 협동형 그룹으로 분류하여 상호관계를 확인하였다. 연구의 가설검증 결과, 첫째 일·생활 균형 수준이 높고, 협업 지향적인 갈등형 그룹은 직무몰입의 수준이 가장 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이에 따라 전통적인 입장의 협업을 강조하는 업무 형태에서는 일·생활 균형을 위한 지원제도를 도입하는데 제한된 입장이 있음을 확인하였다. 둘째, 일·생활 균형 수준이 높고, 개인 지향적인 주도형 그룹은 직무몰입의 수준이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 즉, MZ세대의 사회진출 및 여성인구의 고용률 증가를 반영하여 개별적으로 수행할 수 있는 업무처리 시스템을 개발하고 활성화하여 WLB 수준과 부합할 때 직무몰입에 대한 동기부여가 가능하며, 일·생활 균형 지원 제도의 적절한 활용이 가능함이 검증 되었다. 연구의 학문적 시사점은 일·생활 균형 수준과 업무 성격을 요인으로 구성원의 성격을 세분화한 것이며, 실무적 시사점은 공공기관 및 대기업에서 운영중인 WLB 지원 제도를 그룹화하여 효과성을 분석한 것이다. 마지막으로, 추후 연구에서는 연구 대상을 다양한 조직이나 산업에 적용할 수 있도록 폭넓게 설정하고, 일·생활 균형을 위한 지원제도와 업무성격을 세분화 하여 연구할 필요가 있다.
