Analysis of working women in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh in context to work life balance

Abstract

Economic and societal factors have altered the roles and obligations of women across the globe. Thus, women who work are under great pressure to achieve professional success on par with their male colleagues while retaining an active role in their home life at the same time. Because of their increasing responsibilities, many working women are finding it more difficult to take time for themselves. Today's knowledge-based culture is overburdened with stress due to the proliferation of high-tech gadgets like smartphones, laptops, and other portable computing devices. All three aspects of a person's health are affected by this. In order to maintain a high standard of living while working, women must learn to strike a WLB. Women in the workforce have particular challenges in juggling their professional and personal lives. These are the questions that we want to answer with this study. This study found that a broad variety of factors affected married working women's ability to maintain a healthy WLB. The Industrial Society's handbook on work–life balance was used for this study. In a survey of working women in Bareilly,Uttar Pradesh, some shocking findings were found on the difficulties they encounter in juggling job and family obligations.
