Abstract - In today's cutthroat corporate environment, a good balance between paid labour and unpaid activities is essential for success. Corporations need to run on a 24-hour schedule due to the unpredictable nature of the global economy. The demand for maintaining the ideal balance between work and life is growing. Most of us are under pressure to perform more, quicker, and with less resources in today's fast-paced workplace. The pressure to succeed appears to be greater than ever. We're supposed to be excellent parents, lead meaningful personal lives, raise wonderful children, indulge in our hobbies, give back to the community, and take excellent care of our bodies, souls, and minds—all while working two or three jobs. When we have adequate time to follow our passions outside of work, we have achieved life balance. However, when you feel as though one aspect of your life is consuming too much of your energy, you may experience stress, a decline in productivity, and tension in your personal relationships. The hazards of work-life imbalance, the advantages of a healthy work-life balance, and the tactics that may be used to preserve a perfect work-life balance are all highlighted in the current study. The advantages of implementing work-life balance practises for individuals' families, organisations, and society as a whole. Despite the fact that work-life conflict results in significant business costs due to low engagement, absenteeism, turnover rates, low productivity, and lack of creativity, there are some organisational work-life culture factors that may compromise accessibility to and use of these practises.
Key Words: Work-life, Personal Relationships, Organisations, Productivity.
