Abstract

The concept of work-life balance has been studied for decades, but continuous changes in lifestyles, changes in working conditions, changes in the economy and technology, and increasing of demanding jobs always require an examination of the right balance between personal and work life, for the purpose of maintaining the well-being and safety of the employee and the productivity of the company. Exploring the concept helps to optimize the well-being and safety of the employee and the productivity of the company. This study aims to systematically review the research studies’ focus and trends observed in organizational practice of work-life balance in the last five years. The last five years have been marked by a major phenomenon (Covid-19), which has significantly changed business practices and introduced new methods of work and provided research agendas for researchers who want to triangulate and test new work models. The introduction of new flexible work arrangements has contributed to maintaining work-life balance. However, the new development of new work models is a hot topic and the loss of boundaries between personal life and work life is open to debate and researches. It is highly recommended to study the importance and contribution of employees' work-life balance from different dimensions.
