Making it easier for employees to maintain work-life balance and to facilitate the combination of different social roles increases job satisfaction. WLB is usually analysed in the context of a conflict between various requirements relating to involvement in one’s work and playing other important life roles. Questionnaire surveys were carried out to assess the implementation of work-life balance systems in enterprises and to identify what factors cause employees to be satisfied in the spheres of work and private life. The survey was conducted on 601 employees from the West Pomeranian Voivodship in Poland. Only selected questionnaire questions were used for the analysis carried out in this article, which was part of a larger study on human resources management in enterprises. The questionnaire covered both closed and open questions. Research shows that only half of respondents said that their companies have programmes in place to facilitate the linking of work and private life. Respondents also pointed to work-related factors that determine a happy, successful life. It turned out that factors dependent on work (such as satisfactory work, good working conditions) are an important condition for a successful life.
