Pengaruh Work-Life Balance Terhadap Work Engagement dengan Perceived Organizational Support Sebagai Variabel Moderator pada Karyawan

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji pengaruh work-life balance terhadap work engagement dengan perceived organizational support sebagai variabel moderator pada karyawan. Work engagement merupakan kondisi psikologis positif yang ditandai dengan semangat (vigor), dedikasi (dedication), dan penghayatan (absorption) dalam bekerja. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif eksplanatif dengan teknik total sampling. Subjek penelitian berjumlah 179 karyawan PT BJ yang berlokasi di Kabupaten Mandailing Natal, Sumatera Utara. Pengumpulan data dilakukan menggunakan Skala Work-Life Balance, Skala Perceived Organizational Support, dan Skala Work Engagement. Analisis data menggunakan Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) berbasis Partial Least Squares (PLS) dengan bantuan perangkat lunak SmartPLS 4. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa work-life balance berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap work engagement (β = 0,395). Selain itu, perceived organizational support juga berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap work engagement (β = 0,255). Hasil analisis moderasi menunjukkan bahwa perceived organizational support memperkuat pengaruh work-life balance terhadap work engagement (β = 0,656). Model penelitian memiliki kemampuan penjelasan yang baik, di mana sebesar 60,0% variasi work engagement dapat dijelaskan oleh work life balance dan perceived organizational support, sedangkan sisanya dipengaruhi oleh faktor lain di luar model penelitian. This study aims to examine the effect of work-life balance on work engagement, with perceived organizational support as a moderating variable among employees. Work engagement is a positive psychological state characterized by vigor, dedication, and absorption in work. This research employs an explanatory quantitative approach using a total sampling technique. The research subjects consist of 179 employees of PT BJ located in Mandailing Natal Regency, North Sumatra. Data were collected using the Work-Life Balance Scale, Perceived Organizational Support Scale, and Work Engagement Scale. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial Least Squares (PLS) with the assistance of SmartPLS 4 software. The results indicate that work-life balance has a positive and significant effect on work engagement (β = 0.395). In addition, perceived organizational support also has a positive and significant effect on work engagement (β = 0.255). The moderation analysis shows that perceived organizational support strengthens the effect of work-life balance on work engagement (β = 0.656). The research model demonstrates good explanatory power, where 60.0% of the variance in work engagement can be explained by work-life balance and perceived organizational support, while the remaining variance is influenced by other factors outside the research model.
