Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to examine the relationship between perceived organizational support (POS) and work-life balance (WLB) in the context of the Indian banking sector and their subsequent impact on the commitment level of employees.
Design/methodology/approach
Data were collected from 617 banking employees holding different positions with a structured adapted questionnaire. The data analysis was done using structural equation modeling.
Findings
The results revealed a positive influence of POS on WLB. Moreover, this relationship has been found to be partially mediated by organizational commitment (OC).
Originality/value
This study augments the organizational behavior domain by identifying and empirically validating POS as an antecedent of WLB and OC as its consequence in the context of the Indian banking sector, where such studies are scant. The study also suggests the managerial and theoretical implications based on the findings.
