Abstrakt

Artykuł analizuje indywidualne czynniki dotyczące równowagi między życiem zawodowym a prywatnym (WLB), które wpływają na wydajność pracy. Dane zebrano za pomocą ankiety skierowanej do kadry akademickiej i administracyjnej uczelni wyższych zlokalizowanych w północnym i wschodnim regionie Sri Lanki. Z całkowitej próby liczącej 339 osób przeanalizowano 257 odpowiedzi, stosując solidną metodę analityczną. Wyniki badania wskazują, że indywidualne czynniki WLB w istotny sposób poprawiają wydajność pracy. Badanie dostarcza praktycznych wniosków i wskazówek dla sektora szkolnictwa wyższego w Sri Lance. Rezultaty podkreślają, że zwracanie uwagi na indywidualne aspekty równowagi między życiem zawodowym a prywatnym może wspierać kadrę kierowniczą uczelni w poprawie wydajności. Otrzymane wnioski są również istotne dla decydentów polityki edukacyjnej, aby zwiększyć wydajność pracy poprzez odpowiednie działania wspierające WLB.
