본 연구는 일과 삶의 균형(WLB : Work-Life Balance)이 대인 조화와 창의적 노력 및 조직 내 혁신 행동을 향상시키는지 여부, 그리고 대인 조화와 창의적 노력이 일과 삶의 균형(WLB)과 혁신 행동 간 관계에 간접 효과가 있는지 여부를 알아보기 위해 수행되었다. 본 연구의 가설 검증을 위해서는 Hayes(2013)의 PROCESS Macro를 활용하였다. 분석 결과 혁신 행동에 영향을 주는 것은 일과 성장의 균형(WLB_G)과 대인 조화 그리고 창의적 노력으로 나타났고 대인 조화에 영향을 주는 변수는 일과 가정의 균형(WLB_F)과 일과 성장의 균형(WLB_G)으로 나타났다. 또한 창의적 노력에 영향을 미치는 변수는 일과 성장의 균형(WLB_G)과 대인 조화였다. WLB의 세 개 하위 변수와 혁신 행동 사이의 관계에서 대인 조화와 창의적 노력의 간접 효과 역시 일부 확인 되었다. 더불어 PROCESS Macro 분석을 통하여 매개변수 간의 효과의 크기를 알아보았다. 이를 통해 일과 가정의 균형(WLB_F)이나 일과 성장의 균형(WLB_G)과 대인조화, 창의적 행동 및 혁신행동 간에는 시너지 관계가 존재하고, 일과 여가의 균형(WLB_L)과 대인조화, 창의적 노력 및 혁신행동 간에는 배타적 관계가 존재함을 알 수 있었다. 향후 다양한 다른 산업 간의 일과 삶의 균형(WLB)에 대한 연구와 일과 삶의 균형(WLB)과 혁신행동에 이르는 다양한 매개변수에 대한 연구가 기대된다.

This study analyzes the effects of the work-life balance of physical therapists on their job enthusiasm. Totally, 109 physical therapists at U city were enrolled in this study. Frequency analysis, reliability analysis, and correlation analysis were the preferred methods of analysis, performed using the SPSS 22.0 program. Multiple regression analysis was performed to evaluate the causal relationship between variables. Our results confirmed that work-family conflict and family-work conflict, which are sub-factors of a work-life balance, did not significantly affect job enthusiasm. Moreover, both the work-family promotion and home-work promotion factors of work-life balance had a positively significant effect on job enthusiasm. This indicates that the work-life balance-conflict factor does not influence the job enthusiasm of a physical therapist. Moreover, a higher work-life balance-promotion of work-family promotion and home-work promotion factor, inculcates a higher job enthusiasm. We believe that results of this study will serve as basic data to formulate plans for physical therapists to maintain an appropriate work-life balance, thereby enhancing their job enthusiasm.

The purpose of this study was conducted to investigate the influencing factors on foreign workers's work-life balance and provide guidelines for interventions and strategies to increase work-life balance in foreign workers. This study was a secondary data analysis from the $4^{th}$ Korean Working Conditions Survey(KWCS). The sample included 179 foreign workers. Data were analyzed using SPSS 22 and AMOS 22. As a results, the hypothetical path model was a good fit. In the path analysis, health status, social support, work time, job satisfaction had statistically significant effects on foreign workers's work-life balance and these variables explained 24.9% of work-life balance. These results reveal the predictors of work-life balance in foreign workers. Therefore, we need the active support for work-life balance predictors.

The purposes of this study were to develop work-life balance supportive organizational culture scale(WLB supportive organizational culture) and to verify it's validity. We reviewed comprehensive studies about work-life balance and organizational culture as well as scales related to them. We theoretically extracted some important factors of WLB organizational culture from reviews and then made 38 preliminary questions. 773 married workers in their 30s to 50s were responded to a questionnaire consisted of 38 preliminary questions and 9 variables(work-life balance, quality of life, job satisfaction, turnover etc) for criterion related validity verification. As the results of factor analysis such as EFA and CFA, we could confirm five factors including WLB organizational management, WLB supportive supervisors, empathetic communication with coworkers, coworkers' material support to WLB and accessibility to WLB programs. Second, correlation analyses were performed to investigate the validation of this scale. In result, it was revealed that the WLB supportive organizational culture scale was highly correlated with other family supportive organizational culture measures as well as dependent variables such as work-life balance, quality of life, job satisfaction, turnover. We expect this study contribute to improve the quality of studies about work-life balance and organizational culture.

This study was conducted to verify the effects of individual psychological capital, spousal support, and organization's family-friendly work culture on work-life balance in social workers. For this purpose, married social workers working in social welfare facilities in Chungcheongbuk-do were surveyed, and 331 collected responses were used in the analysis. Multiple regression analysis revealed that resilience and optimism in individual psychological capital, spousal support, and expectations on working hours in organizations' family-friendly work culture were significantly associated with the work-life balance. In addition, there were different factors influencing the level of work-life balance according to gender and age. The findings suggest that efforts to enhance awareness and improve working conditions, such as the development of self-care program, education on the necessity of work-life balance, and implementation of work-life balancing system, are needed to improve the work-life balance of social workers.

This study conducted an e-mail survey of office workers working in large companies in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do to verify the structural relationship between meaning in work, work-life balance, life satisfaction, and depression. The study participants were 329 male and 176 female workers, and a total of 505 ($\bar{M}=38.0$ yrs, $\bar{SD}=8.1$ yrs), and the measurement tools used the Korean version of work meaning scale, work-life balance scale, Korean version of life satisfaction scale, and shortened CES-D. After establishing a research model on the structural relationship between major variables, the measurement model and structural model were verified using the collected data, and the applicability of the model was reviewed through comparison according to group classification by gender and age group. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the work-life balance had a partial mediating effect on the effect of the meaning in work on the life satisfaction and depression of office workers. As a result of analyzing the multi-group structural model by age group, the mediating effect of work-life balance did not differ by age in the effect of meaning in work on life satisfaction, but the mediating effect of work-life balance on meaning in work on depression was different by age. These results suggest that the emphasis needs to vary depending on the target group in the practice of individual and group coaching and counseling.

This study aims to analyze the effects of work-life balance on organizational commitment and turnover intention, and the effects of organizational commitment on turnover intention, focusing on Generation MZ librarians in public libraries. A survey of 183 librarians born between 1980 and 2005, who work at public libraries in the Seoul Metropolitan Area, examined the subfactors of work-life balance such as work-family balance, work-leisure balance, work-growth balance, organizational commitment, and turnover intention. Multiple regression analysis revealed that work-family and work-growth balances had a significant positive effect on organizational commitment and a significant negative effect on turnover intention. Moreover, organizational commitment had a significant negative effect on turnover intention. Accordingly, this study suggests the need to implement a reward policy for night and weekend work and to strengthen work-family balance and work-growth balance at public libraries. Moreover, it suggests horizontal communication and strengthening autonomy to promote organizational commitment.

Along with the mood of 'Beyond GDP', it is necessary to explore how these subjective concepts such as happiness and well-being are quantified to be compared among many countries. The concept of 'Work-life balance (WLB)' is likely to be located on the boundary between the subjective and objective areas. Thus, this article aims to examine the policies related to WLB and how to change or develop those policies considering the concept of WLB and the circumstantial particularity of Korea. There are several suggestions on certain developments in the existing policies interfering WLB at three levels. First the government needs to conduct campaigns to transform traditional gender roles through active advertisement. Second, the company needs to use the long-lasting 'hierarchical organisation culture' for employee's work-life balance for regulating working hours and exhausting paid holidays and maternity or paternity leave. Finally, families should understand and support their wives' current circumstances facing the struggle between a mother and economic worker.
