Occupational stress and work-life balance are interrelated concepts. With the world moving towards modern technologies, changes in work culture and job demands seem inevitable. The need to keep pace with the dynamic work environment has exerted significant pressure on this generation’s workforce. Extreme stress levels experienced at work not only have negative physical and mental health implications but also disturb the balance of the work-life interface. The boundary between work and personal life is slowly but surely diminishing, leading to reduced productivity, inefficiency, and low morale. Hence, this paper aims to understand, firstly, the concept of occupational stress, its relationship with work-life balance, and finally, the different factors affecting workplace stress and work-life balance.
