Abstract: This study aims to identify the relationships between the concepts of workaholism, organizational cynicism, and work-life balance among bank employees in Turkey. The study population consists of 500 bank employees working in various banks across Turkey, and the data were analyzed using SPSS-26 and AMOS-21 software. As a result of the research, the relationships among workaholism, organizational cynicism, and work-life balance were examined, and the effects of these concepts on each other were evaluated. The mediating role of organizational cynicism in the effect of workaholism on employees' work-life balance was investigated. However, the findings indicated that there is no statistically significant relationship between workaholism and organizational cynicism with work-life balance. Therefore, no mediating effect could be identified. Consequently, the anticipated relationships between workaholism, organizational cynicism, and work-life balance among bank employees in Turkey were not confirmed. This situation highlights the necessity for a more in-depth examination of organizational structures and individual differences concerning work-life balance. The study, while offering new perspectives in the field, provides an important foundation for future research.
