Abstract
This paper investigates factors that
predict the work-life balance of employees
in NGOs in Ethiopia using
quantitative research approach and
explanatory research design. Data
was collected from 163 managerial
and professional employees using a
structured questionnaire and responses
were analyzed. Results revealed
low levels of perceived Work
Overload, Family Role Overload,
and Work-family Balance and moderate
levels of perceived Work-life
Balance Policies, and high levels of
perceived Workplace Support. Work
Overload, Family Role Overload,
Social Support, and Work-life Balance
Policies predicted the Work-life
Balance. To improve the situation, in
addition to the existing work-life
balance policies, the management
should introduce need-based family friendly
workplace policies such as
f l exi bl e work i ng arrangement s,
leave arrangements and child care
benefits.
