in 1955 at the initiative of the World Bank, the

Work Life Balance

Changes in the social, political and economic fabric of

societies have influenced and continue to influence both

the nature of employment and its relationship to life
outside work. This project is set against a background of
changing trends in the work environment. In the 1970s
the academic literature was awash with articles
assuming the continuation of trends predicting huge
increases in leisure time for the 21st century.
Work-life balance is central to debates about quality of
working life and its relation to broader quality of life.
Much has been written on the subject and this project
represents an attempt to extrapolate and synthesis the
main themes before exploring the nature of work-life
balance.

Cont
Worklife balance is a broad concept including

proper prioritizing between "work" (career and

ambition) on the one hand and "life" (Health,
pleasure, leisure, family and spiritual
development) on the other. Related, though
broader, terms include "lifestyle balance" and
"life balance". Work-life Balance also referred
to as family friendly work arrangements
(FFWA), and, in international literature, as
alternative work arrangements (AWA).

Cont
To maintain work and life balance is the critical issue

now a day for the every employee. Work(career,

profession, goal, and ambition) will be counterweighted
by the life (family, health, enjoyment) and vice versa.
So maintaining the right balance between two is the
major task of an employee because both are an
important part of the life.

Suggestion
HDFC Bank employees are more satisfied

as compared to ICICI Bank employees.

ICICI Bank Should Increase the facilities and

working condition for employees which will

assist for managing work life balance and
compete the market.
Private Banks are more increasing facilities

for managing work life balance. So that will

resulted into satisfaction of employees and
ultimate to the productivity.

Conclusion
There is more growth in bank as compared

to previous years. Private banks are

providing more number of facilities and that
will resulted into more efficiency of
employees which will help a lot more
progress of banks.
