Abstract: Abstract The conceptual study aims to outline and explore the links between work life balance, work environment, and work motivation on job satisfaction, while also proposing a conceptual framework that can be empirically examined in future research. To develop an integrated framework, the methodology entails a conceptual review that synthesizes pertinent literature to address key questions about the influence of the three variables on job satisfaction. The synthesis results show consistent findings: work-life balance is positively correlated with job satisfaction, and a conducive work environment and high work motivation tend to increase job satisfaction. However, there is contextual variability; work stress emerges as an important mediator that can reduce job satisfaction in unsupportive environments. This article makes a theoretical contribution by proposing a conceptual framework that identifies work-life balance, work environment, and work motivation as key factors influencing job satisfaction. It also highlights the potential impact of mediating or moderating factors, such as work stress to account for variations in empirical findings across different settings. This framework is presented as a model ready for testing in future research to verify the proposed relationships and mechanisms.
