“…Otherwise, when the workers contemplate a longer relationship with their employers, they do expect to have some WPS to enhance their WLB. Previous studies (Banu 2016;Jang 2009) also found that perceived WPS has a positive effect on WLB. Hence, to improve WLB of construction workers, emphasis should be placed on WPS, and organizations should put policies in place that would cultivate workers' trust in their employer.…”

The construction industry is facing acute labor shortage around the globe, which has caused an escalation in construction costs and project delays. Work-life imbalance is identified as a major detrimental factor in attracting young people to join the industry. Previous research on work-life balance (WLB) has focused on shift workers, females, and managerial and professional individuals.There is still a paucity of literature on WLB for manual workers, in particular, manual workers in the construction industry. This paper aims to investigate how workers perceive their work-life balance (WLB) and identify the factors that affect WLB in the construction industry. Based on interviews with the chief executives and senior officers from key trade unions, a questionnaire survey was conducted covering all types of construction manual workers including building, civil engineering and electrical & mechanical (E&M) workers. A total of 970 valid answers were analyzed through Structural Equation Model (SEM). The findings identified workplace support as the most critical area of concern.

“…Some leadership style studies apply SEM (Kim, 2014;Shrestha, 2012). Many other studies examined the effect of work-life balance on employee performance by using SEM models (Tavassoli & Sune, 2018;Banu, 2016;Haar et al, 2014). Another studies identified the relationship of employee engagement using SEM (Hanaysha, 2016;Anitha, 2014).…”

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This chapter of this book shows that the mastery of some modern techniques is needed by the ship’s crew who work in a management to build a modern ship, in accordance with the theme of this project, namely modern ship engineering, design and operations. The main problem is how the management leaders of this modern ship project can apply transformational leadership style through work-life balance and employee engagement to the ship’s crew to make their work effectiveness improved. In carrying out the ship building which takes a quite long time, do the employees can be mutually engaged and can pay equal attention to the work in this project and the work at home? This study uses quantitative method with Structural Equation Modeling. This modern ship building uses some terminologies or variables of human resources such as transformational leadership style, work-life balance, and employee engagement which, based on the research done, directly and positively affect employee’s work effectiveness. The key findings of this study indicate that there is a specific model on employee engagement and crew work effectiveness that is very appropriate to be applied to modern ships related to engineering, design and operations.
