Journal Title: International Journal of Business and Management Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 9
Abstract
The study examines the relationship between high-performance work practices (H-PWPs) and psychological well-being and work-life balance of employees in the Indian Service Sector. This study throws light on the potential dark-sides of H-PWPs, which are portrayed as highly positive by most past researches. We analyzed the effects of strain induced by H-PWPs implementation on psychological well-being and work-life balance of employees randomly selected from Private sector banks in NCR, India. Using a sample of 150 employees, results from correlation, and stepwise regression analyses showed that some of the potential HPWPs like; selective hiring, performance-based pay, high productivity and quality, autonomy and extensive training are strongly associated with psychological ill-health and work-life imbalance. Therefore, organizations have to rethink and pay close attention to balance between the practices that release human potential and that increase the intensity of work.
