Abstract

Work-life balance has generated global interest among employers with the increasing competition among industrial players in the market, where it is seen as a competitive advantage due to the retention, engagement, and motivation outcomes among employees to work for the employer. This study focuses on identifying employees' preferences for the types of work life in manufacturing industries in Tambaram MEPZ. Primary data was collected through a questionnaire of 100 respondents. The result reveals that employees place a higher value on the provision of wellness programs, and they believe that allowing special family leave should be emphasized more by their employers at the workplace. The results also highlight the importance of gender-neutral support systems and policies for mental health and stress reduction in organizations and show that younger employees tend to work overtime more frequently. The findings present insight into employers' current positioning of work-life balance in the workplace.
