Abstract
Work-life balance (WLB) is an important area of human resource management which is receiving increasing global attention from policy makers, organizations, management, employees and their representatives. This research note aims to explore current definitions of WLB, as well as related constructs such as job satisfaction, life satisfaction, and commitment. We explore their likely impact on work performance from a cross cultural viewpoint. We draw attention to the fact, that while much research into WLB has been conducted in Western economies, there is still a paucity of research into workers experience and outcomes of WLB in Eastern societies that needs to be addressed, especially in comparison to WLB for workers in Western nations.
