Resumo(s)
Purpose – This study aims to explore the relationship between work–life balance and employee retention by
examining the mediating role of psychological empowerment among software firms based in India.
Design/methodology/approach – The study collected 283 responses by using a structured questionnaire
and interview method. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to validate the hypothesized research
model for examining the consistency and sturdiness of the study variables by applying AMOS 20.
Findings – The result reveals that psychological empowerment partially mediates the relationship between
work–life balance and the retention of professionals. This indicates that a high degree of psychological
empowerment strengthens the relations between work–life balance and the retention of professionals.
Research limitations/implications – The research outlined a best-fit model of psychological empowerment
as a partial mediator among work–life balance and the retention of professionals. The study presents a set of
sensible and practical aspects where work–life balance and retention of professionals can aid in developing and
generating commitment to the organization which could offer new insights for software professionals,
managers and practitioners.
Originality/value – This study emphasized that psychological empowerment helps in enhancing dedication,
loyalty, integrity, allegiance and trustworthiness among employees, thus playing a role between work–life
balance and the retention of professionals.
