Abstract
Research related to work-life balance of minority women on the African continent is sparse. The aim of this chapter is to fill this gap by examining how younger and older Indian women (a minority group in South Africa) managers balance their work and home lives and how they succeed in reaching senior and top management posts in the process. The theoretical approach used is cultural identity work. A qualitative approach using semi-structured interviews was employed to gather data from 24 participants. The results of the study indicate that there is indeed a difference in how younger and older South African Indian women achieve work-life balance and the extent to which they engage in cultural identity work. Future research thoughts are recommended.
