There is not yet one agreed upon definition of work-life balance. Some definitions suggest that work-life balance is the ability to accomplish the goals set in both work and personal life and achieve satisfaction in all life domains. Other definitions suggest that the term balance implies equal engagement in and satisfaction with work and personal life roles. Still other definitions include the idea that balance is (1) indicative of the absence of conflict between work and personal life, (2) an idiosyncratic construct, or (3) a social construct built between an individual and others in his or her work and personal life domains. Some researchers focus exclusively on balance between work and family roles, but more recent research and practice strongly suggests that other nonwork roles outside of family should be included in the research on balance.
There is significant interest in work-life balance in terms of quality of life research and practice because there has.
