Demographic and occupational factors associated with work-life balance among physician assistants/associates: a cross-sectional study

Our findings revealed that PAs practising in non-primary care specialties had the highest odds of reporting satisfaction with WLB. Identifying factors strongly associated with PA work-life balance can aid in developing targeted interventions. However, further research is needed to understand the intrinsic and extrinsic factors influencing PAs' WLB.

Abstract

Our findings revealed that PAs practising in non-primary care specialties had the highest odds of reporting satisfaction with WLB. Identifying factors strongly associated with PA work-life balance can aid in developing targeted interventions. However, further research is needed to understand the intrinsic and extrinsic factors influencing PAs' WLB.
