Work-Life Balance of Women Employees in the Indian Banking Industry: An Empirical Study of the State of Haryana

Abstract

A fulfilling existence is possible when one’s work and personal life are in harmony with one another. Finding a happy medium between one’s “work” (career goals) and one’s “life” (personal happiness, leisure activities, family, and spiritual growth) is what the phrase “work-life balance” (WLB) is all about. Today, women’s work-life balance (WLB) is more important than ever before because of the societal expectation that men and women should provide financially for their families (Doble & Supriya, 2010). This highlights the critical need for studies examining women’s WLB. Finding out what factors most affect women’s WLB is the primary objective of this study. 310 bank employees had their personal information gathered. Some exploratory methods that were used to evaluate the data were path analysis, structural equation modelling, factor analysis, and correlation. There was a strong correlation between workload, organisational support, and family support, as well as WLB. Companies can use this kind of information to zero in on the exact variables that increase WLB.
