This systematic literature review explores work-life balance (WLB) with an emphasis on how it affects working mothers and women, as well as organizational performance. Initially ten articles were selected from the Web of Science database, published between 2014 and 2024, and then three additional studies were added to increase the number of the quantitative and case studies. This sample of research studies was analyzed using the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. The results emphasize the difficulties women encounter when balancing work and domestic obligations, such as role conflict, stress, and limited career advancement. It has been demonstrated that good work-life balance practices, such as flexible scheduling, encouraging company culture, and family-friendly policies, improve employee satisfaction, productivity, and employee loyalty. However, progress towards gender equality in WLB is still hampered by enduring cultural norms and workplace expectations. The review emphasizes how companies and legislators can work together to create environments that support women’s needs and promote organizational performance.
