Work-life balance is a significant concern in the modern workplace, with many employees striving to achieve equilibrium between personal, professional, and family life. To address this issue, senior management has tasked you with investigating the work-life balance of employees and identifying factors that could impact this balance positively. Some essential factors to consider in the survey development process encompass work hours, job satisfaction, social media usage, gender, age, marital status, parental status, income, educational background, commute duration, cell phone usage, and nightly sleep hours.
