Abstract

Hybrid work is a working model that combines office work and remote work and has important implications for organizations and employees. However, there are challenges in a hybrid work environment, such as communication, coordination, connection, creativity, and culture. At the same time, applying digital innovations in a hybrid workplace has advantages and disadvantages. This research aims to identify the types of digital innovations that can enhance work-life balance, explore the positive effects of digital innovations on work-life balance in hybrid workplaces, and explore the negative effects of digital innovations on work-life balance in hybrid workplaces. By collecting data through questionnaires conducted with 384 employees in the Central Region of Malaysia and conducting detailed data analysis, this study aims to provide employees and employers with an in-depth understanding of the impact of digital innovation on work-life balance. The findings of this study provide employees with guidance to manage their work-life balance better and help them increase productivity, reduce workplace stress, and enhance their quality of life. For employers, the findings of this study will help them understand the positive and negative impacts of digital innovations on employees’ work-life balance so that they can adopt corresponding measures and policies to improve employee benefits, job satisfaction, and performance. Positive effects include improved integration of work and personal life, reduced commuting impact, and lower psychological burden through flexible arrangements. Negative impacts encompass potential overtime, coordination difficulties, and increased work pressure. Some analysis methods used in this research are Cronbach’s Alpha, Descriptive, Pearson’s Correlation, and Multiple Regression analysis. The SPSS output showed a significant relationship between flexibility time, mental well-being, adaptation challenges, and productivity with work-life balance. Thus, hypotheses testing is accepted. Ultimately, the results of this study will provide future researchers with valuable information and references about the relationship between digital innovation and work-life balance and provide a basis for in-depth exploration of issues in this field. By deepening our understanding of the impact of digital innovations on the hybrid workplace, we can contribute to creating healthier, balanced, and sustainable work environments
