Work is part of life and today's work culture is characterized by uncertainties and long working hours. There is paucity of time for people to attend to their personal issues. Hence, having a balanced approach to life has become an important buzz word for organizations and employees. In this study, the researchers have made an attempt to find the level of Work/Life Balance of the employees of manufacturing and Information Technology (IT) sector. A scale to assess the work/life balance, developed by Pareek and Purohit (2010), has been administered on 200 employees of three manufacturing and IT companies to measure the work/life balance. A positive Work/Life Balance exists among employees of both manufacturing and IT companies.
