Reaching Compromises in Workers’ Life Satisfaction: A Multiobjective Interval Programming Approach.

Despite being frequently regarded as a non-work variable, life satisfaction plays an important role in organizational behaviour and human resource management. Previous research has ascertained that workers’ life satisfaction is inherently a multidimensional concept. We extend this line of work by analysing the main factors that might have an infuence on the trade-ofs among four diferent aspects of workers’ life satisfaction (satisfaction with education, present job, family life, and social life) in reaching compromises between them. A methodological approach that combines econometric and multiobjective interval programming techniques has been used. This methodological framework allows evaluating the compromises of specifc aspects of workers’ personal and working conditions in diferent scenarios given as intervals. Our fndings suggest that female workers must generally spend more time at their jobs than men to reach the highest balanced levels of satisfaction across all aspects under evaluation. Additionally, one child is suffcient to reach the highest levels of life satisfaction (among all factors considered in its assessment) for both men and women. One possible policy implication of these results may be that existing work-family arrangements are not sufcient in the current context of falling birth rates all over Europe. eng http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ open access Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacional Satisfacción en el trabajo Empleo - Modelos econométricos Reaching Compromises in Workers’ Life Satisfaction: A Multiobjective Interval Programming Approach journal article
