Organisational work-life balance : influence of managerial perspectives of gender and justice

Abstract

Although the role of managers in work-life balance (WLB) has drawn increasing attention from scholars and practitioners, there remains a dearth of critical inquiry into the complexities underlying their decision-making processes. Given the considerable influence that managers have on their staff's ability to balance personal and working lives, this remains a significant gap in the field. Accordingly, the purpose of this thesis is to challenge existing methodological frameworks and theoretical oversights guiding WLB research.
