Overview

This book aims to unveil the dimensions of work-life balance for female academics in Bangladesh exploring both work and family related factors that have influenced their work life balance and work family conflict. Key Findings of this book suggest that factors from both family and work domains have mostly negative effect on the WLB of the female academics. By addressing the existing conceptual, methodological and evidence gaps of the WLB literature on working women, the book will significantly contribute to the existing body of knowledge. It addresses some of the key institutional limitations that are limiting the job satisfaction and career growth of female academics by disrupting the harmony between their job and household responsibilities. By addressing these institutional barriers, this book paves the way for a better understanding of the organizational side of the issue and has the potential to help managers and policymakers better manage the workplace to provide a better working environment to female workers.
