Statistical analysis of work-life balance and job satisfaction: an empirical study of female employees in the cigarette industry

The concept of work-life balance has become increasingly popular in recent years. The demands of dedicating oneself to work, managing household responsibilities, and fulfilling non-work obligations have led many modern workers to adopt work-life balance strategies to harmonize their professional and personal lives. This study aims to analyze the effect of work-life balance on job satisfaction among female employees at Pitoe Cigarette Factory, Trenggalek. The research employed a simple linear regression analysis method, using data collected from questionnaires completed by 95 female employees as samples. The results of the simple linear regression test indicated a positive relationship between work-life balance and job satisfaction, with a p-value of 0.000, which is less than the significance threshold of 0.05. This finding demonstrates that improved work-life balance can contribute to increased job satisfaction among female employees. The coefficient of determination (R²) was found to be 0.413, indicating that 41.3% of the variation in job satisfaction is explained by work-life balance. Furthermore, the study revealed that both work-life balance and job satisfaction levels were categorized as moderate, suggesting the need for greater attention to managing the balance between work and personal life. These findings are expected to provide insights for Pitoe Cigarette Factory management and other companies in designing policies that support work-life balance, ultimately enhancing job satisfaction and productivity among female employees.

Anthropogenic pressure induced discontinuities of microbial communities along the river.

Microorganisms play a fundamental role in driving biogeochemical functions within rivers. Theoretically, the directional flowing nature of river contributes to the continuous downstream change pattern of microbial communities. This continuity is anticipated to be influenced by human activities as anthropogenic materials lead to the mixing of environmental substances and their resident microorganisms with local communities. Here, we conducted a field investigation along the Beiyun River, which successively flows through pristine forest areas, artificial urban and agricultural areas with a length of 184km, to explore the influence of anthropogenic events on microbial similarity, diversity, composition, co-occurrence, and assembly mechanisms in sediments along the river. Piecewise linear regression tests showed that discontinuities of microbial similarity occurred following the transitions from low to high anthropogenic pressure. LEfSe analysis illustrated that microorganisms associated with wastewater treatment plants and gut were differentially abundant in urban and agricultural streams. By quantifying contributions of ecological assembly processes, we found that the dominant role shifted from variable selection (60.78% in forest group) to homogenous selection (79.52% in urban group and 57.14% in agriculture group) as the differences in NH4+-N, NO3--N and NO2--N content decreased. Moreover, the complexity and stability of microbial networks were reduced from upstream forest streams to downstream urban and agricultural streams, indicating more fragmented networks. Our study provides enhanced knowledge about the factors controlling the microbial community assembly in rivers under increasing human pressure through the integration of physical, environmental, and ecological mechanisms, which can serve as a basis for predicting and responding to changes in ecosystem function under the intensified human pressure.
