Abstract

This study aims to analyze the relationship between workload and work-life balance on employee retention, with job satisfaction as a mediating variable among nurses at Hospital X in Bandung. This research uses a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 100 nurses selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire and analysed using Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Among the 100 nurses at Hospital X, 71% were female and 29% were male. In terms of age, most respondents were within the productive age range: 17% were aged 25–30 years, 41% aged 31–35 years, and 20% aged 36–40 years. No respondents were under 25 years, while 22% were over 40 years old. The findings highlight that improving job satisfaction through rational workload management and support for work-life balance is a crucial strategy for enhancing nurse retention. This research contributes to hospital management in designing more humanistic and sustainable policies to retain professional staff. The study shows that workoload has a significant negative effect on job satisfaction, while work-life balance has a significant positive effect. Job satisfaction positively influences employee retention and mediates the relationship between workload and work-life balance with nurse retention.
