Work and life balance is important for an employee, especially among academics. Nowadays the challenge of balancing work and life is challenging. If a person gives too much attention to one side, whether it's work or family, another side will definitely be neglected. When demands for work or personal affairs are needed, it directly creates an unbalanced situation and further forms a conflict between work and family. The conflict of balance between work and life will have a negative impact on the other party, whether it is the organization or the family. Failure to manage the balance between work and life well will have negative effects including absenteeism, lack of commitment at work, low work quality, low productivity, lack 54 of creativity and innovation, stress, conflict in the family, and divorce. Therefore, this study will analyze the highlights of previous studies related to the definition of work-life balance and also the elements of work-life balance among UTeM academics. The research findings from the highlights of this past study will be able to help organize more systematic and significant ideas towards future studies.
