Abstract: The paper investigates the moderating effects of employee wellness on the relationship between work-life balance and job satisfaction. A quantitative research design was adopted to examine the hypothesised model using the SPSS PROCESS. An in-depth analysis of employee wellness, work-life balance as well as job satisfaction of teachers based in Mount Darwin situated in Mashonaland Central, Zimbabwe was taken into cognisance. One hundred and thirty-two (n = 132) participants took part in the study. The results revealed that at low quality of work-life balance, job satisfaction was similar for teachers with low, average or high quality of work-life balance. Teachers with high quality of work-life balance who had high employee wellness also had high job satisfaction. The practical and theoretical implications of this study are also highlighted.
