A balanced life is one where we spread our energy and effort - emotional, intellectual, imaginative, spiritual and physical - between key areas of importance. Tlie neglect of one or more areas, or anchor points, may threaten the vitality of the whole. A modest attempt has been made in this paper to examine some of the literature on work life balance, explore challenges in achieving it, address the costs of ignoring the issue and present specific WHB strategies and programmes for employees and workplaces to implement in their quest for improved balance and well being.
