Abstract

The wellbeing of employees is a priority for modern businesses, who are attempting to provide work-life balance so that employees can balance their lives between work and home. There is a negative impact on employee welfare if there is an imbalance between personal and professional life. Unlike other industries, hotels are known for their in- depth service delivery which can lead to long working hours and over straining of employees. Hotel industry is packed with uncompromising professionalism, ambiguous daily roasters along with sudden work pressure which can lead to physical as well as mental stress. This can lead to acclimatization of your daily life and adjustments psychologically. The study included quantitative research techniques, and a simple random sampling technique was used whereby the participants were 81 working professionals who were single and, in a relationship, male and female, with and without children.
