The Effect of Work Life Balance and Innovative Work Behavior on Employee Performance at State-Owned Banks in Jember Regency
Keywords:
Work Life Balance, Innovative Work Behavior, PerformanceAbstract
Employee performance is a crucial determinant of organizational success, particularly in the banking sector, which must deliver high-quality and competitive services. In State-Owned Banks in Jember Regency, work-life balance and innovative work behavior are critical factors influencing employee success. This study seeks to examine the influence of work-life balance and innovative work behavior on employee performance inside these firms. A quantitative research methodology was employed, with data collected through questionnaires distributed to employees using a saturation sampling approach. The data were analyzed through examinations of instrument validity and reliability, evaluations of classical assumptions, multiple linear regression analysis, hypothesis testing, and estimations of the determination coefficient (R²). The findings demonstrate that both work-life balance and innovative work behavior have a favorable and significant effect on employee performance. Work-life balance is demonstrated by qualities such as temporal equilibrium, engagement, and satisfaction in both professional and personal domains. Innovative work behavior is assessed by the capacity to generate, advocate for, and implement novel ideas in the workplace. The findings suggest that improving work-life balance and promoting creative behavior can enhance employee performance and facilitate the attainment of corporate goals.
