<![CDATA[Work-life balance has become a critical issue in the hospitality industry, which is characterized by high service demands, irregular working hours, and intense work pressure. Despite the growing body of literature on work-life balance and employee performance, empirical evidence focusing on the hospitality sector in Indonesia remains limited. This study aims to examine the effect of work-life balance on employee performance in a four-star hotel in Bandung, Indonesia. A quantitative approach with a descriptive and verificative design was employed. The research population consisted of 50 hotel employees, and a saturated sampling technique was applied. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire with a Likert scale and analyzed through simple linear regression. The results indicate that work-life balance has a positive and significant effect on employee performance, explaining 26.1% of performance variance. This finding suggests that while work-life balance plays an important role in enhancing employee performance, other factors also contribute substantially. The study provides empirical support for the strategic importance of work-life balance policies in service-oriented organizations and offers practical implications for hotel management in improving employee well-being, productivity, and retention. Furthermore, this research contributes to the literature by enriching contextual evidence from the Indonesian hospitality industry and highlighting directions for future research on comprehensive human resource management strategies.
