The Pedagogical Assessment of Work-Life Balance and Its Impact on the Domestic Life of Women Faculty in Higher Educational Institutions of Kerala

Abstract

Employees' well-being, productivity, and capacity to care for their families are all impacted by their work-life balance (WLB). Because there are more women than males in positions of authority in today's workplace and in education. Employees must learn to balance their professional and personal lives. Women workers must strike a balance between work and family if they want to keep workplace conflicts to a minimum. The primary objective of this research is to analyse the relationship between WLB and the personal lives of female college professors. The study goes on to examine women faculty members' levels of job stress, the effects of this stress on their families as a result of organisational stress, the work-life balance (WLB) of women faculty members, and lastly, future strategies to help women teachers achieve WLB. The study's quantitative analysis was carried out using SPSS version 24.0. Primary data was obtained via surveys conducted to female academics at Kerala's higher education institutions. The process begins with the development, division, and distribution of a systematic questionnaire survey. To conduct quantitative analysis, a purposeful sampling technique was used, and a total of 36 responses were obtained. In order to get the results, we looked at the cluster, average score, cross tabulation, and regression test (K). The research found that women faculty members experience professional stress, which in turn affects their personal lives by making them regrettable about not spending time with their families at leisure.
