Abstract

Work-life conflicts have become a matter of great concern lately, as the workforce entering in to the workplace is changing considerably in terms of demographics. Some scholars are of the opinion that work-life balance is an individual construct and therefore should be managed at individual level. In contrast, another set of scholars argue that it as an organizational construct and therefore require intervention from organizations. Meanwhile, several organizations have responded positively to the claims of the latter group by inaugurating work-life support initiatives. Yet, little has been known categorically about the effectiveness of these initiatives. For example, advocates for work/family initiatives have reported difficulties in convincing the business world that the initiatives do, indeed, “add value.” This study has therefore focused on reviewing literature to identify determinants of work-life family issues, outcomes of work-life conflicts and corollary of work-life balance initiatives on individual and organizational performance.
