Abstract: This study explores the relationship between work-life balance and organizational commitment among nurses in Level 2 hospitals in Laguna. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected through a structured survey questionnaire, encompassing demographic profiles, a Work-Life Balance Scale, and an Organizational Commitment Scale. Statistical analysis revealed that nurses generally perceive their work-life balance as moderate, with strengths in balancing personal and professional responsibilities but challenges in organizational support. Organizational commitment was found to be strong, particularly in affective and normative dimensions, while continuance commitment showed slightly weaker associations. A significant moderate positive correlation was identified between work-life balance and organizational commitment, emphasizing the importance of achieving work-life integration to foster loyalty and satisfaction. Demographic factors such as age, marital status, and years of service significantly influenced this relationship, highlighting the need for tailored interventions. Based on these findings, the Work-Life Balance and Commitment Enhancement Program (WLBCEP) was proposed, incorporating flexible scheduling, wellness initiatives, and stress-reduction strategies to enhance both work-life balance and organizational commitment. These results underscore the vital role of supportive organizational practices in improving nurse retention and overall healthcare outcomes.
