Abstract:
In today's Ahmedabad, achieving work-life balance is a significant challenge for working women. This paper delves into this complex issue, exploring the disparities they face and the strategies they employ to navigate work and personal commitments. The research investigates the key factors that contribute to the difficulty of achieving balance, such as long working hours, household responsibilities, and societal expectations. It further examines the impact of work-life balance on the well-being of working women in Ahmedabad.
The study employs a descriptive research design and utilizes a self-designed questionnaire to gather data from working women in the city. The research has three primary objectives: to identify the key determinants of why some women struggle more than others to achieve work-life balance, to analyse the effects of work-life balance on their overall well-being, and to explore the correlation between existing work-life balance practices and their sense of well-being.
Through this research, the paper aims to shed light on the experiences of working women in Ahmedabad. By understanding the challenges they face and the strategies they utilize, the research hopes to contribute valuable insights to the existing body of knowledge on work-life balance. Ultimately, the goal is to inspire positive changes in both workplaces and society to create a more supportive environment for working women in Ahmedabad, enabling them to achieve greater wellbeing and flourish in both their professional and personal lives.
