Abstract: Abstract For more than three decades, researchers have pointed out the importance of work in adult life and its relationship with other aspects of life. It has been argued that making work a number one priority over other aspects of life can be detrimental to physical, mental, and social health. In regions, such as Argentina, where unemployment is high and there are still differences and preferences in the job opportunities that men and women have, it is important to analyse work-life balance based on gender. We revise the literature that analyses how employees are able to achieve meaningful balance between their work and private lives and examine if women could achieve the same level of balance as men.
