Abstract:

This study is designed in order to deal with the impacts of presenteeism tendency on work-life balance. The work-life balance indicates the consistency between the time spent at work and in private life. Conflicts between these two dimensions have become a major problem for businesses as well as employees. Presenteeism refers to the circumstances in which employees keep on working in spite of the fact that they are unable to work owing to their own unhealthy situations.

Organizations, by taking control of work-life balance, contribute to not only employees’ health and performance but also organizational productivity and efficiency in general terms. For the purpose of the study, relationship between presenteeism and work-life balance is analyzed and impact of presenteeism is stated.
