Work-Life Balance Analysis

The assignment discusses the perceived change in work-life balance due to technology use, highlighting both employee and employer perspectives. From an employee's viewpoint, excessive attachment to work through technology can lead to increased stress, anxiety, and negative impacts on mental health and personal life. On the other hand, from an employer's perspective, technology-assisted communication with employees can increase productivity, create trust, and strengthen relationships. The assignment suggests that employers should provide compensation or benefits to employees who maintain a balance between their work and personal lives through technological means.

According to my opinion, the perceived change in between work/life balance is not a
good thing from an employee's viewpoint. The use of technology keeps an employee attached to
his organisation throughout the day and his employer uses to call him up whenever required and
due to this that employee's personal life gets disturbed. It increases work-related stress and
anxiety which in long-term, causes a serious impact on an employee's mental health (Bell,
Rajendran & Theiler, 2012). There should be a gap between one's personal life and work life. By
concentrating on work life, in order to respond to the employer's call, an employee's personal life
gets disturbed which ultimately create a negative impact on that employee's family and social
life.
On the other hand, from the viewpoint of an employer, the use of technology which
causes a perceived change in work/life balance is a good thing as it assists them to contact with
his employee when required. It is good for the employer as it helps him to increase his
organisation’s overall productivity for long-run. Moreover, it also creates a trustworthy, friendly
and loyal relationship with employees as well as strengthens employee relationship (Kim, 2014).
In order to keep the employer and employee both happy and satisfied, the employer must provide
some compensation to his employer who uses to deliver his service to the organisation whenever
required by keeping his personal life aside. The employee compensation system must include the
policy on providing employees an extra monetary benefit those who keep in touch with their
organisation and employer through technological means like smartphone, mobile applications
and other and respond to their employer whenever required.
