This study emphasises the importance of work-life equilibrium in the teaching profession. It synthesises
existing research in order to provide valuable insights into the challenges teachers face and potential
strategies to improve their work-life balance (WLB). The paper begins by highlighting the importance
of WLB for teachers, illuminating its implications for their job satisfaction, well-being, and overall
classroom effectiveness. It systematically analyses the various factors, such as heavy workloads,
administrative demands, and the emotional toll of teaching, that contribute to work-related stress
among educators. In addition, it investigates a variety of coping mechanisms and interventions
proposed to mitigate these difficulties, including flexible work arrangements, professional
development, and support systems. This study seeks to inform educational policymakers, school
administrators, and teachers themselves about effective strategies to promote and sustain a healthier
work-life balance in the teaching profession by conducting a comprehensive review of the current state
of research.
