Abstract: The pressure of good work-life balance has never been more necessary as more women enter the workforce, particularly in metropolitan cities such as Delhi-NCR. The purpose of this research is to learn how family and societal responsibilities and social pressures affect women's work-life balance, and how work-life balance (WLB) solutions can improve women's overall physical health and happiness. Using a quantitative study approach, 150 women from various fields in the Delhi-NCR area participated. We utilized structured questionnaires to collect data, which was subsequently analysed using Pearson's methods of correlation and regression. The study discovered a strong and positive correlation (r = 0.812; p<0.01) between the use of techniques for work-life balance and the increased satisfaction with work-life balance among working women. An additional finding from the regression analysis was the weak but statistically significant effect of family chores and social expectations on work-life balance (R² = 0.037, p = 0.001). These results show that traditional gender norms still have a small effect, but organizational support is really important for making women happier with their work-life balance. The report says that to make the workplace more welcoming and helpful for women, we need to do two things: make workplace policies stronger and encourage change in society.
