“…Likewise, to offer additional evidence, the study has also developed and tested the moderated mediation of OI, thereby attempting to test a more robust model and providing a unique contribution. Fourth, the vital need for re-inquiries related to WFC to generalize earlier research findings has been emphasized by several scholars (Gopalan et al , 2020; Raina et al , 2020). This study extends the general discussion on WFC by answering calls to conduct more studies on WFC in India by prior researchers.…”

Purpose The service effort behavior (SEB) of health professionals may be impeded by many factors. This study aims to draw upon the conservation of resources and stressor–strain–outcome theories to test a moderated mediation model that explores how work–family conflict (WFC) influences SEB. The mediating effect of emotional irritation (EI) and the moderating effect of organizational identification (OI) was also tested. Design/methodology/approach Data was collected over two waves from 524 health professionals working across India and was tested using SPSS PROCESS macros and Amos 24. Findings The results revealed that WFC has a significantly negative relationship with SEB, and EI mediates the relationship between the two variables. The mediation process was further moderated by OI. Originality/value There is an absolute scarcity of evidence that has explored the association of WFC and SEB with the mediating role of EI. Along with offering a nuanced understanding of these relationships, this study also presents some interesting insights to health-care administrators.

“…Additionally because of the high-power distance culture in workplace settings, Indian employees require a friendly working environment (Baral and Sampath, 2019) as they have high caring and associative needs (Raina et al , 2020). The superior functions as a mentor because of a collectivist culture that looks after the subordinate’s professional life concerns and tries to handle their personal life problems also (Baral and Bhargava, 2010; Krishnan, 2011).…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to review the literature on work–life interface (WLI) studies conducted in India, including how cultural and institutional factors affect the work–life balance perception of Indian employees and how they differ from the west. Design/methodology/approach The preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta analyses (PRISMA) framework was used to select studies included in this systematic review. Findings Employees in India prioritize their family first because of the collectivist culture as opposed to the west, where work forms the role of root identity. Further, it was found that institutional support in India is lower than in developed western countries, resulting in difficulty for Indian employees to balance their work and life domains. Additionally, methodological advancement and large-scale multilevel research are much needed in India, as research on work–life studies is still in its infancy. Research limitations/implications This study is limited to qualitative synthesis of PRISMA framework. Adopting more advanced “meta-analysis” techniques to review quantitative studies could result in more comprehensive and informative results. Originality/value Since 2009, there has been an increase in empirical studies conducted on work–life studies in India, but no systematic review has been conducted to understand the various theories and variables used by researchers. In this study, we developed a conceptual model to increase the theoretical knowledge of WLI constructs.

“…More recently, several firms formed and managed by women have grown rapidly compared to those operated by men (GEM, 2019). Income earned by mothers is vital, as it provides social status and identity for the family (Raina et al, 2020). Accordingly, women entrepreneurship is designated as the new engine for economic growth (Agarwal and Lenka, 2015).…”

PurposeThis study examines women entrepreneurs' understanding of motherhood and entrepreneurial career and how they negotiate this combination with their gendered understandings and social norms in Sri Lanka.Design/methodology/approachData were collected using in-depth, semi-structured interviews from 20 entrepreneurial mothers in the Western Province of Sri Lanka. Sub-samples were taken to achieve demographic heterogeneity.FindingsThis study found that entrepreneurial mothers do not perceive their business as separate from their motherhood understanding. They believe that their profession is a part of motherhood responsibilities. This study also found that to negotiate a combination of roles, these mothers employed two coping strategies at different levels: family and business.Research limitations/implicationsAs the sample size is small, an extended research strategy would be more effective. Future research could seek to identify strategies that women entrepreneurs use to balance their business–family life.Practical implicationsThis research provides implications for balancing business and family life for women entrepreneurs.Originality/valueThe paper extends the cultural and geographical scope of the literature on women entrepreneurs' business–family life experiences.
