Abstract

Employee retention has become an important issue for organizations seeking to maintain workforce stability and sustain long-term organizational performance. This study aims to examine the impact of work–life balance, job stress, and compensation on employee retention. A quantitative research approach was employed using a survey method to collect primary data from 150 employees working in various organizations. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with the assistance of SmartPLS. The results indicate that work–life balance has a positive and significant effect on employee retention, suggesting that employees who are able to maintain a balance between work and personal life are more likely to remain committed to their organizations. In contrast, job stress has a negative and significant influence on employee retention, indicating that higher levels of workplace stress increase the likelihood of employee turnover. Furthermore, compensation was found to have the strongest positive effect on employee retention, demonstrating that fair and competitive compensation plays a crucial role in motivating employees to stay within the organization. These findings highlight the importance of implementing effective human resource management strategies that promote work–life balance, reduce job stress, and provide competitive compensation systems. By addressing these factors, organizations can improve employee satisfaction, strengthen organizational commitment, and enhance employee retention in the long term.Work–Life Balance

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to explore the experiences of Generation Z employees within digital work environments, focusing specifically on digital work pressure, workplace well-being, and retention intention. Design/methodology/approach: A qualitative approach utilizing an exploratory design and a constructivist paradigm was employed. Data were gathered through semi-structured in-depth interviews with 20 Generation Z employees working in digitally-based organizations in Yogyakarta. Participants were selected via purposive sampling, and the data were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. Findings/Results: The analysis identified four core themes: (1) digital work pressure as a normalized strain within digital work cultures; (2) constant connectivity and the blurring lines between work and personal life; (3) the ambivalent effects of digital work pressure on productivity and mental exhaustion; and (4) workplace well-being as an interpretive mechanism in shaping retention intention. While digital technology is perceived to enhance flexibility and productivity, continuous connectivity induces mental fatigue and challenges work-life balance. The intent to remain within an organization is evaluated through the quality of work experiences, organizational support, self-development opportunities, and work-life harmony. Originality/Value: This study enriches the literature on the digital work experiences of Generation Z and offers practical insights for organizations to design digital work policies that support employee well-being and reinforce retention.
