일과 삶의 균형이 직무배태성에 미치는 영향과 경력지향성의 조절효과

Developing human resource has become the driving force for corporations to achieve sustained growth and secure competitiveness. Although corporations are putting every effort to maintain their human resource, there is a general trend where workers are leaving and changing jobs voluntarily. One of the reasons for this is that there has been a recent change on work-life awareness and career orientation among workers. Work-life balance is considered to be a precedence factor which can influence job embeddedness, which means the inner/ external factors on remaining in an organization. In this vein, the purpose of this study was to examine the impact of work-life balance on job embeddedness and to verify moderating effects of career orientation between the two variables. 215 corporate workers have participated in questionnaire survey to verify the hypothesis of the study. The results were summarized as follow: High work-life balance had impact on high job embeddedness. Especially, work-growth balance showed its high correlation with fit of job embeddedness. The study also verified that traditional career orientation had moderating effects between work-life balance and job embeddedness. Based on the finding of the study, its implications as well as the limitations have been addressed.
