Abstract
Having a sense of satisfaction with work-life balance is ascertained in the present study. The work-life balance is studied with reference to the locus of control phenomenon. 200 working women were taken as a sample, from Pakistan in order to analyze the roles of internal and external locus of control in determining work life balance. The data is obtained using questionnaires along with the consent form to ensure confidentiality and the purpose of the study was briefed. The responses obtained were analyzed using Descriptive Statistics, Correlation, paired Sample t-test, Reliability analysis and Regression Analysis. The findings of the study demonstrated that women with external locus of control reported higher levels of satisfaction with respect to work-life balance whereas women with an internal locus of control reported slightly lower levels of satisfaction. It was because women with an internal locus of control tend to focus more on a child than work. Whereas women with an external locus of control manage work and family together. But working women with both internal and external locus of control are faced with stress that needs to be addressed.
