Since the last few years achieving ‘Work life balance’ is a key word in the IT industry and especially in the life of female employees. From 2020 to till date this issue has become crucial as ‘work from home’ (WFH) culture is growing everywhere. Work-life balance is, in simple terms, the act of separating one’s work life from their personal life and WFH has brought disruption in the definition.
