Abstract

Work-life-balance and expatriation are phenomena that have evinced keen interest among Social scientists. Though the two topics have been researched separately, studies that examine the relationship between the two are scarce. Further, there are far less studies that have examined these among women employees. The present work intends to fill this gap in the literature. Using a randomly collected sample of 201 female employees from India and the Middle East, the study examined the difference in work-life balance between them. The study has brought out some interesting results, which will be of high utility to social scientists and researchers. It has been found that female Indian employees enjoy better work-life balance than expatriates.
