Abstract

This research explores the complex topic of work-life balance among Filipino nurses employed in a selection of healthcare settings in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates—a multicultural and dynamic setting. It is important and timely to understand the work-life balance of Filipino nurses in this setting, given the distinct demands and pressures that exist across different healthcare facilities. The study employed a descriptive correlational and causal research design, utilizing universal sampling to select participants from medical centers, clinics, and homecare facilities. The participants were 104 Filipino nurses working in the healthcare industry in the Emirates. The findings revealed that the level, overall, burnout levels were reported as low. Organizational support was perceived as moderately high, with high support in training and development, and conflict resolution, and moderately high support in workload management, clear expectations, and supportive supervision. Overall, it was discovered that there was a rather good work-life balance. Work-life balance and burnout were found to be positively correlated, particularly in terms of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and decreased personal achievement. The research found that organizational support and burnout are both very significant determinants of work-life balance, rejecting the null hypotheses. In conclusion, Filipino nurses in Abu Dhabi experience emotional exhaustion as the highest form of burnout, yet they report a low overall level of burnout.
