“…Research findings have shown parental responsibilities are linked to employee work-life conflict as parents have more demand and less control over their time; hence, resulting in work-related effects such as job dissatisfaction, absenteeism, intention to quit, stress etc. (Panisoara & Serban, 2013). These in turn affect workplace productivity.…”

In the changing world, diversity in workplace is the new reality not just for complying with equal employment opportunity but also for catering to their diverse customer base. There are theories that have spoken both for and against the proliferation of diversity. Theories such as Ashby's Principle of Requisite Variety and Information / Decision-making Perspective suggest that certain diversity attributes heighten the benefit of heterogeneity in organizations that in effect, ameliorate the quality of decision-making. Moreover, many previous studies have shown that workplace diversity indeed affects firm performance positively. The current research has studied the relationship of core diversity factors (such as gender, religion and race) that are relevant in the context of Bangladesh with organizational performance; and the study was conducted with both primary and secondary data from 80 listed firms in the Dhaka Stock Exchange. Research findings show that there is a significant positive relationship between organization-wide gender diversity and firm performance.

“…However, not only coupled people but even singles may experience imbalance. A small-scale study conducted in a group of Romanian employees found that out of four types of marital status (unmarried, married without children, married with children under 18, married with children over 18) none had a significantly different level of work-family balance (Panisoara and Serban 2013). Young urban singles also perceived that workload and professional strains endanger their leisure time and work-life balance (Santha 2016).…”

Value shifts and labour market transformations of the recent past have increased the importance of the work-family balance in the active population. Work overload also means an increased health risk. This study aims at identifying the main demographic, social and work-related determinants of work-family balance in the ethnic Hungarian active age population of Mures County, Romania. Linear regression is performed to assess the controlled effects of variables. Single parents, parents with more children and shift workers are at increased risk of imbalance. Demographic agents account for more disparities in work-family balance than do work-related features.

“…It seems that most studies in the field of work-life balance occasionally have focused on organizational performance (Beauregard & Henry, 2009); burnout and work stress relationship (Barrett, Mazerolle & Eason, 2016;Karabacak, 2013) and demographic factors (Adriaenssens, De Gucht & Maes, 2015;Anila & Krishnaveni, 2016;Padmasiri & Mahalekamge, 2016;Panisoara & Serban, 2013;Pichler, 2009). …”

“…Although differences of opinion still exist, there appears to be some agreement that personal factors refers to personal characteristics of individuals who experience emotional exhaustion. Personal factors include demographic variables such as age, gender, marital status and education; moreover, personality traits and work-related behaviors.Numerous pioneering studies (Constable & Russell, 1986;Etzion, 1984;Kutsal & Bilge, 2012;Panisoara & Serban, 2013;Pichler, 2009) which observe the linkage between sociodemographic factors like age, gender, marital status, work experience and burnout; contribute to the literature by explaining the burnout differences between employees. According to Dillon & Tanner (1995) and more recently Yıldırım (2008) it might be said that gender, age and marital status have not linkage with burnout.…”

The object of the research is observing the effects of socio-demographic factors and work-life balance on employees' emotional exhaustion. The sample of the research consists of 261 participants in retailing, education, service, industry and logistics sectors. In line with the theoretical background, proper methods that are hierarchical regression analysis and analysis of variance (ANOVA) are implemented. The contribution of the research to the existing literature is exploring the relationship between socio-demographic factors, work-life balance and burnout by carrying out the implementation in organizations. Findings of the research demonstrate that the predictor with the highest effect on emotional exhaustion is the variable named taking time for oneself. The predictor with the lowest effect is variable named life is just working. Briefly we can say, it could be argued that emotional exhaustion declines by .398 units should taking time for oneself increases 1 unit. Emotional exhaustion decreases by .223 units whether work-life accordance is changed by 1 unit. Emotional exhaustion drops .196 units should life is just working increases 1 unit. By contrast, when you change neglecting life 1 unit, emotional exhaustion decreases by .202 units. Should carrying work to home changes 1 unit, emotional exhaustion increases by .313 units. To sum up, regarding to marital status, monthly total income and sector; there are significant differences between the groups in the levels of emotional exhaustion of employees. It appears that there is no significant difference between other groups.Keywords: Work-life balance; emotional exhaustion; socio-demographic factors; hierarchical regression; ANOVA. IntroductionOver the past 30 years there has been a significant increase in the field of work-life balance and burnout. Undoubtedly, this increase is almost certainly due to the change of work's structure. Most studies in the literature have focused on work-life balance and burnout relationship (Chiang, Birtch & Kwan, 2010;Chimote & Srivastava, 2013;Karabacak, 2013;Pichler, 2009). These studies are frequently implemented in the field of education, health and defense; and the participants are mostly nurses (Altay, Gönener & Demirkıran, 2010;Li, Ruan & Yuan, 2015); teachers (Avanzi, Schuh, Fraccaroli & Dick, 2015;Khezerlou, 2013;Otacıoğlu, 2008); academicians (Budak & Sür-gevil, 2005;Moeller & Chung-Yan, 2013) and police officers (Novara, Garro & Di Rienzo, 2015). By contrast, it is a widely held view that a small number of studies which have focused on the relationship between work-life balance, emotional exhaustion and socio-demographic factors; moreover, only a small number of them have been carried out in the organizations. Therefore, this study aims to fill this gap by carrying out the implementation in organizations and observe the relationship between socio-demographic factors, work-life balance and burnout.
