Abstract

Women play a significant role in development of any economy. An economically strong society can be built only if women are provided with equal opportunities as men. Thus, it is imperative that women participation in workforce increases. They can achieve that through work-life balance. If women are able to manage work-life balance, then labour supply increases which in turn stabilises the income of the family and enhances productivity. This study looks into the factors that affect work-life balance of women professionals and how that in turn affects the productivity and economic growth of the country. Data were collected through primary survey. The study identified important determinants of work-life balance another survey was conducted among HR of different companies to understand about the gender inclusive policies of their organisations. The study has important implications for the future research and policy measures.
