The topic of work life balance (WLB) has received increasing attention in the scientific literature. However, very few studies have examined the effect of having a WLB culture on HR outcomes and organizational results in SMEs. This research fills this gap in the literature by examining the main effects of having a WLB culture on employees' commitment, satisfaction, turnover intentions, productivity and firm results in small organizations. To achieve this we conduct an empirical analysis with two samples (employees and managers) from an industrial sector in Spain. Contributions and implications for practitioners are explained in last part of the article. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
