SUSTAINABLE WORK–LIFE BALANCE PRACTICES AND EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE IN THE BANGALORE BANKING SECTOR
Abstract
The banking sector has experienced rapid transformation due to digitalization, increasing
customer expectations, regulatory reforms, and evolving workplace practices. These
developments have intensified employees' workloads and heightened the importance of
maintaining a sustainable work–life balance (WLB). This study aims to examine the impact of
sustainable work–life balance practices on employee performance in the Bangalore banking
sector. Specifically, it investigates how flexible working arrangements, managerial support,
employee wellness initiatives, leave policies, workload management, and organizational
culture influence employee productivity, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and
overall performance.
