Abstract

Work-life balance has become an emerging issue in clinics and private hospitals as it is affecting the efficiency of nurses and lady doctors. The main focus of the study was nurses and lady doctors working in clinics and private hospitals. A sample of 134 nurses and lady doctors was taken. The purpose of this study is to find out the factors that will help nurses and lady doctors in maintaining work-life balance. Data was analysed with the help of factor analysis and one-way ANOVA. The study concluded that provision of work-life balance policies and practices by the hospitals will help nurses and lady doctors in utilising their full potential. Moreover, a successful work-life balance in clinics and private hospitals will make nurses and lady doctors more committed and highly productive thereby giving them complete job satisfaction. In this paper, work life balance issues are discussed in light of demographic changes.
