The Impact of Work Stress, Work Environment, Self-Efficacy, and Work-Life Balance on Employee Productivity: Evidence from Indonesia

This study examines the impact of work stress, work environment, self-efficacy, and work-life balance on work productivity from an Indonesian perspective. As Indonesia develops as an emerging market, it is vital to comprehend the factors that affect employee productivity to maintain economic growth and provide valuable insights for e-business in the country. The current body of literature extensively covers work stress worldwide; the influence of cultural factors specific to Indonesia on work stress and its subsequent impact on productivity remains relatively understudied. The research was designed using a quantitative method referred to as structural equation modeling-partial least squares (SEM-PLS), which examined 201 responses from employees in Indonesia. The findings of this research show a significant relationship between all items with all p-values below 0.05. The findings emphasize the importance of Indonesian organizations adopting successful stress management techniques, nurturing supportive work environments, and advocating for policies that promote a positive work-life balance to enhance employee productivity.
