Government Legislation And Work-Life Balance: Empowering Working Women In India

Abstract

Achieving work-life balance is a crucial aspect of ensuring the well-being and productivity of working individuals, particularly women, who often juggle multiple responsibilities both at home and in the workplace. In India, the government has implemented various laws and policies aimed at supporting working women and safeguarding their rights. This research article explores the government legislations related to work-life balance for women in India, analyzing the constitutional provisions, statutory laws, and special acts designed to promote gender equality, protect women from discrimination, and address issues such as sexual harassment, maternity benefits, and domestic violence. By examining the legal framework in place and its implications for working women, this article aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities surrounding work-life balance in India.
