This study aims to determine the relationship between work-life balance factor (flexible work arrangement, social support and work-family conflict) and job satisfaction among employees in aviation industry. The theory used in this study is Work-Life Theory, Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory and Demand Control Model. The method used in this research is a cross-sectional survey. This research involves 100 employees working in Hornbill Skyways Sdn. Bhd. Kuching, Sarawak. The relationship between work-life balance factor and employee job satisfaction was analyzed using the Pearson Correlation Analysis.
