INTRODUCTION
Work-life balance working women in corporate sector |
Work-life Balance has emerged as a hot topic in recent years. This concept has gained considerable importance due to demographic trends with time. Women's social roles have have been changed across the world. This has resulted in women being in tremendous pressure to develop a career as robust as their male counterparts and still being engaging in personal life.
WLB is a daily effort to take out time for family, friends, community, spirituality, personal growth, self care and other personal activities in addition to the demand of workplace. "When I think about work-life balance, i don't imagine it as a perfect day where I got to spend the exact right amount of time having an impact at work and snuggling with my kids at home. I never achieve that. But over the course of a month, or a quarter, or a year, I try to make time for the people and experience I value." (Jane Park)
Education has not only empowered women but also has given them robust careers. With brain power being the requisite skill in this knowledge era, rather than endurance or physical strength, the women workers seem to flood into every industry on par with men. But this has become a tough challenge for women to perform duties at home and office as well. Married working women get additional responsibilities and these responsibilities intensify when they are on a family way.
