Abstract
Correlations among workplace satisfaction, marital coping, and Work-Life Balance (WLB) were examined based on gender to identify factors affecting workers’ mental health. The results indicated that “job content” in workplace satisfaction and “delegated dyadic coping by the self” as well as “negative dyadic coping by the partner” in marital coping directly affected the mental health of male workers. On the other hand, job content and “delegated dyadic coping of the partner” as well as “negative dyadic coping by the partner” directly affected the mental health of female workers. Moreover, it was suggested that in both men and women, job content and negative dyadic coping by the partner might affect workers’ mental health, mediated by “commitment to work,” which is one WLB factors.
