1.1 Introduction
To avoid delays and failures employees are working hard and giving their hearts and
soul to achieve work-life balance achieves creating enormous pressure on them and
hence they are faced to finish their jobs irrespective of time limitations. The right
balance is a very personal thing and will change for each person at different times of
his or her level.
It can lead to absenteeism from work, creating stress and lack of concentration at
work. Work-life balance conflicts occur when the burden, obligations, and
responsibilities of work and family roles become incompatible. The obligation of one
can force an individual to neglect the other. Work-life balance can be defined as the
perfect integration between work and life both not interfering with each other.
Work-life balance is about creating and maintaining a supportive and healthy work

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
INTRODUCTION:
It can lead to absenteeism from work, creating stress and lack of concentration at
work. Work-life balance conflicts occur when the burden, obligations, and
responsibilities of work and family roles become incompatible. The obligation of one
can force an individual to neglect the other. Work-life balance can be defined as the
perfect integration between work and life both not interfering with each other. The
right balance is a very personal thing and will change each person at different times of
his or her level.
Literature Review
Lazar I. (2010) in paper titled “ The Role of Work-Life Balance Practices in Order to
Improve Organizational Performance”, showcased that everyone benefits from easier
recruitment, improved retention, and easier service delivery, as the labor market grows
more skilled and experienced people are available to work; parents and careers, who
can spend quality time at home as well as provide financial support through work;
people with disabilities.
Objectives:
Improved access to work; and the workforce generally where they are better able to
balance their work with other aspects of their lives.
Objectives:
Findings:
Kumari I. (2012) in her study “employees perception on work-life balance and its
relation with job satisfaction in India public sector banks “emphasized that each of the
work-life balance factors on its own is a salient predictor of job satisfaction and there
is a significant gap between male and female respondents with the job satisfaction
with references to various factors of work-life balance.
Objectives:
Findings:
The result of the study had practical significance for human resource managers of
especially banks to improve staff commitments and productivity along with designing
recruitment and retaining employees.
Objectives:
Adequate and fair compensation.
Safe and healthy working conditions.
Findings:
Employees who are better able to balance the demands on their time are most satisfied
and content in turn they are able to perform better.
Goyal k.a, Agarwal (2015) in the paper titled “issues and challenges of work-life
balance in the banking industry of India” explained that work-life balance policies and
programs are an investment in an organization for improving productivity, reducing
absenteeism, achieving improved customer services, better health.
Objectives:
Kakkar, Jyoti, Bhandari, and Anuradha, (2016) in the paper titled “A study on
work-life balance in the Indian service sector from a gender perspective” highlighted
numerous studies on work-life balance issues faced by women at the workplace, yet
studies on this topic that focus on men or limited a number. Studies on gender
differences are available in huge numbers, however, there are few studies that talk of
work-life balance with reference to men, and for either, they have been ignored or
have been taken for granted for being this stronger sex, be it at home or at the work
front.
Objectives:
Onur Emre. (2019) in this paper titled “the role of work-life balance and autonomy in
the relationship between commuting, employee commitment, and well-being” data
from the fifth European working conditions survey indicate that there is a negative
relationship between commuting time, commitment, and well-being.
Objectives:
Flexible working hours, staggered hours, reduced workweek, job sharing, part-time
employment and other types of alternatives work schedules provide freedom to
employees in scheduling their work.
Findings:
Results also suggested that work-life balance mediates parts of these relationships and
finally that autonomy can act as a buffer against the effect of community time on both
commitment and wellbeing.
Objectives:
Reducing the stress level at work and increases the job satisfaction.
Work and quality of life
Findings:

CHAPTER- 4
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
To avoid delays and failures employees are working hard and giving their hearts and
soul to achieve work-life balance achieves creating enormous pressure on them and
hence they are faced to finish their jobs irrespective of time limitations. The right
balance is a very personal thing and will change for each person at different times of
his or her level.
It can lead to absenteeism from work, creating stress and lack of concentration at
work. Work-life balance conflicts occur when the burden, obligations, and
responsibilities of work and family roles become incompatible. The obligation of one
can force an individual to neglect the other. Work-life balance can be defined as the
perfect integration between work and life both not interfering with each other
The phrase ‘work-life balance’ is rather more recent in origin. It was probably first
used in the UK in the late 1970s, and in the US in the mid-1980s. It has, however,
taken on a new meaning with the recent technological changes that have made it
possible for workers to stay in touch 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Smart
phones, remote working technology and the like have meant that, even on holiday,
people find it hard to ‘switch off and genuinely rest, and the complaint is often that
people are expected to be ‘on-call’ at all times, without being allowed to have a life
outside work.
Today, work-life balance has shifted to incorporate both the issues and strategies
aimed at effective time management for employees. It has also expanded to include
burnout prevention and stress management. Employees today want better time
management skills to spend time with their families and on their personal interests.
And, unlike in the 80s, there is increasing emphasis today on in making work-life
balance more gender neutral. Work-Life balance should be attainable and evenly
distributed across genders. (2015 EY Global Generations Survey).
Even with these strides, there is still a disconnect on perceived work-life balance
levels between employees and HR professionals. According to a February 2015 study
by Workplacetrends.com, 67% of HR professionals reported that their employees are
achieving work-life balance, while only 45% of their employees reported the same.
One common and popular way that employers help employees achieve work-life
balance is through flexible schedules. Instead of a strict 9am-5pm workday,
employees have the flexibility to shift their schedules. Perhaps work 10am-6pm or
7am-3pm with little advanced scheduling or approval. Of course, there are downsides
to this. Some argue that this approach simply shifts time units, and doesn’t address a
deeper need for quality time. Others have noticed that flextime, though attractive for
recruitment, can lead to disadvantages for younger workers in the form of lower
wages, role stagnation, and even termination.
Still, digital integration threatens the freedoms gained from flextime by blurring the
lines between work and life. Often, employees find themselves using their flextime to
stay digitally connected to work. It’s increasingly difficult to know where work ends
and life begins. And the more tech savvy one is, the more difficult it is to draw a line
between the two. Since technology and our “always on” culture isn’t going away
anytime soon, the conversation on work-life balance needs to evolve.
Work-life balance is something many professionals strive for, and finding a way to
achieve it to their satisfaction is important for overall happiness in work and in life.
However, the meaning of this concept has changed over time. This makes it
imperative to understand what seems to be in store for the future of work-life
work-life integration in lieu of work-life balance. They argue that by removing the
boundaries separating work and life, the two domains can be integrated seamless.y.
While someone who focuses on creating work-life balance may set a time where they
stop working every day to ensure they have enough time for life’s pursuits, someone
focusing on work-life integration may leave work early to go to their child’s softball
game and reply to work emails between innings.
It seems that this vision can only be conceived by employers and realized by
entrepreneurs. Work-life integration is too narrow a lens to re-imagine this as work-
life balance. It’s still based on the idea of two separate domains — work and personal
lives — and a time tradeoff. The only material difference between work-life balance
and work-life integration is that with integration, the two domains are expected to
intermingle and increasingly overlap. In fact, work-life integration may fuel the sense
of imbalance even more because employees feel as if they have to be “always on.”
