Subscribe/Renew Journal
This paper examines the relationship of job satisfaction with the upcoming concept of Work-Life Balance (WLB), turnover intentions and burnout level of doctors. A sample of 175 MBBS qualified doctors across Pakistan, was considered for the study. A questionnaire was used to collect the data from the doctors working in different departments of the hospitals in major cities of Pakistan including Peshawar, Rawalpindi and Islamabad. The response rate was satisfactory resulting in 70% response rate. Cronbach’s alpha scores were calculated for each variable to confirm the reliability. The study depicts the picture of how job satisfaction is affected by WLB practices in the developing country like Pakistan,and how it affects the burnout level of doctors, however, very little research has been done in this relationship across the globe while in Pakistan no research found in this regard, we are aware of, to examine the said relationship. The aim of this paper is to provide an empirical evidence to prove the relationship. The research provides an evidence that the doctors who are better able to manage their work and life responsibilities have low burnout level and experience more job satisfaction and ultimately result in less turnover. Data has been processed by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). To analyze the data t-test and regression were used. Results are compaired to previous researches.
