Abstract

The data article focuses on perception of workload balance and employee job satisfaction in work organisations. The design of the study was a cross-sectional survey. The population of the study consisted of employees of eight multinational companies and two private Universities in Nigeria. Thus, the study employed two samples and used a structured questionnaire in eliciting the data from the respondents.  Content validity index served to validate the research instrument while Cronbach alpha was used to assure its reliability. Respondents’ participation from the first was requested through social media while face-to-face administration was done for respondents in the second sample. Stratified random sampling was employed in selecting the respondents from the two categories. The data were analysed using frequency tables, chats and F test (one-way ANOVA). Frequency tables and chats were used to describe the perception of workload balance and employee job satisfaction in work organisations while F test (ANOVA) was used in testing for the relationship between respondents’ perception of workload balance and their demographic variables.
