Abstract

The work life balance of women employees has become an important subject for women academicians since the time has changed women contributing to the family living. In the present context, women are no longer considered as only family and domestic caretakers. The time and economical necessities have forced the change, where men and women equally share the responsibility of domestic care and earnings for the family. The Worklife balance requires accomplishing harmony between professional life and personal life with the goal that it decreases friction between work and domestic life. Work-life balance describes the relationship between work and the personal commitments in one’s life, and the manner in which they affect one another. Work-life balance has eventually become an essential necessity for almost all categories of employees, including those employed in teaching positions, in which the women are dominant. The present study is conducted amongst women teachers in Mysore to understand the nature and factors influencing their work life balance.
