Work life balance of medical professionals during Covid-19

Abstract

Work life balance even though has been a contemporary topic in recent years but still there are organisations and job profiles which do not allow a good work life balance. Most researchers focused on female doctors or female nurses for their research but researchers have proved that work life balance impact equally irrespective of gender. During pandemic we are hearing a greater number of cases where medical professionals are working in difficult conditions. Even during pandemic work life balance should be given importance. Questionnaire was circulated through social media and 80 responses were received. Finding of this study reveals that medical professionals’ work life balance is greatly affected by organisational factors as well as emotional and physical wellbeing. This research will have social implications in terms of understanding challenges faced by medical professionals in terms of managing their work- life–balance.
