Abstract

There is always a high competition among private universities in Egypt, this creates a burden on academicians and increases their work demands. Therefore, this study aims to review the academicians’ perception of their ability to balance between their work and life. Because finding a way that could help individuals create barriers between those two important domains is challenging; this goes back to the heavy demands arising from work, home, and society at large. The study provides a review of the JD-R model, personal resources and work-life balance for the past 10 years. This paper proposes that personal resources could be a potential moderator on the relationship between job demands, job resources, and work-life balance. This paper focuses on psychological job demands, supervisor support and coworker support, and social support
