Abstract

This study investigates the effect of work-life balance and job crafting on employee work engagement at Rejang Lebong Regional General Hospital. In the healthcare sector, where employees face high demands and stress, enhancing engagement is essential to maintain performance and service quality.

The study aims to understand how personal life balance and proactive job adjustments impact employees’ engagement levels. The findings show that both work-life balance and job crafting have a significant and positive effect on work engagement, with an R² value of 0.758.
