| Abstract | The objectives of this research were to (1) examine the levels of work stress, workload, and work–life balance among higher education personnel, and (2) analyze the influence of work stress and workload on work–life balance among personnel at a higher education institution located in the Bangkok Metropolitan Region. This study employed a quantitative research approach. The population consisted of personnel working at a higher education institution in the Bangkok Metropolitan Region. The sample comprised 110 respondents, selected using stratified random sampling, followed by probability proportional to size (PPS) sampling across institutional centers. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, including frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation, were used to analyze the general characteristics and levels of the study variables, while multiple regression analysis was employed to examine the influence of work stress and workload on work–life balance. The results revealed that the overall levels of work stress, workload, and work–life balance among the respondents were at a moderate level. The hypothesis testing results indicated that work stress—particularly the psychological dimensions of work stress (β = 0.32)—and workload (β = 0.59) had a positive and statistically significant influence on work–life balance. Together, these variables explained 70 percent of the variance in work–life balance. The findings highlight the importance of effectively managing work stress and workload in order to enhance work–life balance among higher education personnel in the Bangkok Metropolitan Region. |
