“…Psychological wellbeing is a process of self-realization and it is attained by both challenging and rewarding life events (Zainal Badri & Wan Mohd Yunus, 2021 ). Psychological wellbeing was affected by crises including the COVID 19 (Zainal Badri & Wan Mohd Yunus, 2021 ). Psychological wellbeing is negatively related to stress (Johnson et al, 2005 ) and poor psychological wellbeing brings down job satisfaction (Johnson et al, 2005 ).…”

“…Health Care Workers (HCWs) and Frontline Workers (FLWs) have tirelessly been fighting against the pandemic round the clock. HCWs and FLWs have been confronted with stressors namely long working hours (Johnson et al, 2005 ; Qasem Surrati et al, 2020 ), additional workloads, fear of infection (Lai et al, 2020 ; Saladino et al, 2020 ; Schäfer et al, 2020 ), inadequate medical infrastructure and facilities, violence (Iyengar et al, 2020 ), less interaction with the family members (Zainal Badri & Wan Mohd Yunus, 2021 ), and inadequate support of the society while tackling the pandemic. So, HCWs such as Doctors, Nurses, Lab Technicians, and health care support staff and FLWs such as Police personnel and Civil defense volunteers are more exposed to anxiety, fear, depression, distress, and physical health problems namely headache (Keech et al, 2020 ), sleeplessness, and feeling of exhaustion (Houdmont et al, 2021 ; Robillard et al, 2020 ).…”

The COVID 19 pandemic has challenged the humankind’s livelihood, physical health, mental health, employment, and economy. Lockdowns, quarantines, online teaching, and learning have become new normal. Negativities have been spread across the globe and society by the pandemic. The negative effects caused a confused mindset, fear, anxiety, stress, and other psychological complications amongst the people especially among the Health Care Workers (HCWs), children, elderly people, and Frontline Workers (FLWs). This research work examines the levels of Occupational Stress (OS), and psychological well-being (PWB) of HCWs and police personnel during the pandemic and the relationship between OS and PWB. Further, the study analyzed the role of Positive Psychological Capital (PPC) as a mediator and Emotional Quotient (EQ) as a moderator in the relationship between OS and PWB. Positive Psychological Capital (PPC) characteristics of the respondents such as having faith in one's ability, and performance, willingness to succeed or attain the goals framed, ability to bounce back from the hard times, and their optimism about the future have helped them to tackle the stress caused by the pandemic and to maintain a better state of psychological wellbeing in the fight against the pandemic.

“…The concept of "role conflict" defines a kind of internal conflict in which job and family role obligations are at odds with one another to some degree, making it difficult to fulfill requirements in one area while having to meet them in the other (Zainal Badri and Wan Mohd Yunus, 2021). Both work and family roles may be defined by the obligations placed on the individual by their work colleagues and family members and the values the person has about their work and family role behavior.…”

Impact of Role Conflict on Intention to Leave Job With the Moderating Role of Job Embeddedness in Banking Sector Employees

This study investigates why some employees intend to leave their jobs when facing conflict between family responsibilities and job routines. The present study also reveals the moderating role of on-the-job embeddedness between role conflict and intention to leave the job. Drawing on conservation of resources theory, the paper investigates the buffering effect of the three on-the-job embeddedness components (fit, links, and sacrifice). Data were collected from banking officers because most of the employees have to face role conflict between family and job responsibilities, as banking is considered among the most stressful jobs. Collected data were analyzed by applying structural equation modeling. Results indicate that the role conflict significantly influences intention to leave the job. Furthermore, the study shows that on-the-job embeddedness moderates the relationship between role conflict and intention to leave. The results suggest that organizations can reduce turnover intention during times of work and life conflict by developing employee on-the-job embeddedness. This study provides some insights to managers on why many employees leave their jobs and how to overcome this problem. Management should also offer extra and available resources in periods of greater tension to minimize early thinking regarding quitting.

The scale was chosen for its validity and reliability to evaluate the individual state of happiness, especially among student or adult populations [48][49][50]. A sample item is "I feel like life is very rewarding".…”

Perfectionism or a tendency to aim for an unrealistic standard can impair happiness. However, the potential mechanisms of perfectionism to explain the association between trait emotional intelligence (EI) and happiness are still understudied. This study explores the mediating role of perfectionism in the relationship between trait emotional intelligence (EI) and happiness among young adults. A cross-sectional sample of 259 young adults aged between 18 to 35 years old was recruited. All analyses were conducted using SPSS and AMOS Structural Equation Modeling. High trait EI was linked to low perfectionism and high happiness levels. Furthermore, perfectionism mediated the relationship between trait EI and happiness. Although high trait EI lowered maladaptive perfectionism, the negative impact of maladaptive perfectionism remained and subsequently led to decreasing happiness levels of young adults. This study offers an enhanced understanding of the role of perfectionism in explaining the happiness state of young adults. Moreover, it provides practical implications for using trait EI and managing perfectionism tendency to manage the happiness and wellbeing of the young adult population.
