    The study aims to establish and evaluate the relationship between selected work life balance practices and job satisfaction. The selected practices are Flexible work arrangement, Job characteristics, Fringe benefit plan and Supervisor support. The study used explanatory research design and both qualitative and quantitative approach. The study employed census survey where the data is collected from the total population for analysis. A total of 120 employees completed the survey. Descriptive statistics revealed that employee’s have low level of perception of work life balance practices and job satisfaction. Results of the regression analysis showed that work life balance is a positive predicator of job satisfaction.
