A study on employee work–life balance, motivation, and compensation satisfaction in United Group’s power division

Abstract

This paper examines the recruitment and hiring practices of United Group’s Power Division and analyses factors affecting employee work-life balance, motivation, and satisfaction. Misalignment of skills, time delays in the hiring process, bureaucratic work systems and limited candidate interest in specialised engineering roles are key challenges faced by the organisation. The report is structured into three chapters. Chapter 1 discusses my overall internship experience, while Chapter 2 provides information about United Group and its Power Division. Chapter 3 presents findings from a survey I have conducted on employee work-life balance, motivation, and job satisfaction. It explains the survey results and suggests recommendations to improve employees’ overall satisfaction, motivation, and work-life balance.
