Abstract

This study assessed the relationship between perceived organizational support, task load, and work-life balance among nurses in selected hospitals in Cebu City. Nurses are critical to healthcare delivery but frequently encounter excessive workloads and demanding schedules that may hinder their ability to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Using a descriptive-correlational research design, the study surveyed 150 nurses selected through stratified random sampling from both public and private healthcare institutions. Standardized instruments measured levels of perceived organizational support, task load, and work-life balance. Descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation were employed for data analysis. Results revealed a significant positive correlation between perceived organizational support and work-life balance, suggesting that nurses who feel supported by their institutions are more capable of managing their professional and personal responsibilities effectively. In contrast, task load showed a significant negative correlation with work-life balance, indicating that heavier workloads contribute to decreased work-life integration. These findings highlight the critical role of organizational support in mitigating the adverse effects of workload on nurse well-being. The study recommends that hospital administrators and policy-makers prioritize strategies that enhance institutional support and optimize workload distribution. Such efforts may improve nurse satisfaction, promote healthier work environments, and support long-term workforce retention in the healthcare sector.
