An Empirical Study of Women in Administrative Roles at Cancer Hospitals in Kolkata during the Time of the Pandemic for Assessing their Work-Life Balance

Aindrila Chakraborty

Abstract: This study aims to investigate how hospital administrators' commitment to their institutions and their degree of job satisfaction mediate the association between work-life balance and their capacity to handle cancer emergency patients during a pandemic. A total of 110 female employees were polled for this investigation. All of the quick thinkers here are women working in administration. This study employs a quantitative technique to examine its hypotheses using a questionnaire and in-person interviews. The point of conducting such in-depth interviews is to learn more about the interviewees' coping mechanisms and responses to the pressures of juggling professional and personal commitments. Female workers' reactions to stress can be categorised as either stimulus/reactive, preventative/responsive, or transactional/common. This study found that during COVID-19, a healthy work-life balance had a positive and sizable effect on the organisational dedication of cancer institutions. Hospital staff loyalty suffers when they have to respond to a pandemic or an influx of emergency patients. This research analysed survey responses to better understand the problems faced by administrative teams. Furthermore, it would ideally aid hospital administration in formulating policy solutions to the stress difficulties faced by administrative female personnel in healthcare settings.
