This study explores the nuanced effects of digital transformation on female faculty members in HEIs, emphasising its implications for their professional and personal well-being. Drawing on the job demand-resource (JD-R) theory, the research investigates how digital transformation influences WLB, job satisfaction, life satisfaction, and career satisfaction among female faculty members. It highlights female academics' complexities, balancing teaching, research, administrative duties, and personal responsibilities amidst technological advancements. The female faculty members of HEIs includes teaching staff, lecturers, research associates, junior faculty, assistant professors, associate professors, and professors. The study adopted simple random sampling methods and instruments from various authors. The study recommends that HEIs prioritise supportive policies, technical training, and a conducive work environment to mitigate the negative impacts of digital transformation on female faculty. Insights from this research contribute to enhancing understanding of gender equity among faculties and inform practical strategies for optimising the integration of digital technologies in educational settings.
