Analysing the Effect of Digital Work Culture on Women’s Work-Life Balance in Information Technology

The rise of digital work culture brought about by technological advancements and the global shift to remote work has altered the dynamics of the workplace, especially in the information technology (IT) sector. This study highlights the benefits and drawbacks of digital work cultures for women in IT industries as they relate to work-life balance. The concept of work-life balance is highly relevant because this study also looks at how a woman may struggle between her personal and professional lives. Digital work environments, which can provide flexibility and shorter commute times, enable better time management and greater control over work schedules. Work-life balance may benefit from these advantages. There are some challenges, though, like the blurring of the lines between personal and professional life, the rising demands on both work and family, and the need to isolate oneself from everything and concentrate solely on one's work. This study looks at the advantages and disadvantages of this digital work culture for women in the IT industry. It also examines organizational support systems, like flexible work schedules and mental health services, that may mitigate the negative effects of a remote work culture. This paper's ultimate goal is to comprehend how digital work cultures can be used to help women maintain a work-life balance, with implications for organizational procedures, policymaking, and gender equity in the workplace.
