The study sheds light on the challenges faced by women police officers in maintaining work-life Balance, which is a critical issue for their overall well-being and job performance. The findings suggest that despite the efforts to improve gender equity in the police force, women police officers continue to face significant barriers to achieving a balance between work and personal life. The ANOVA and regression analysis revealed that capacity building programs are important in improving WLB, highlighting the need for more investment in training and skill development opportunities for women police officers. This finding is particularly relevant for policy-makers and organizational leaders, as it underscores the importance of creating an enabling environment that supports women's career growth and professional development. Moreover, the factor analysis showed that long working hours, inadequate support systems, and harassment and discrimination were the major factors affecting WLB. These findings highlight the need for policy and organizational changes to address these issues, such as implementing policies that limit working hours, creating supportive networks for women police officers, and developing mechanisms to address harassment and discrimination. Overall, this study contributes to the existing literature on gender and policing by providing insights into the specific challenges faced by women police officers in Kerala, and identifying strategies to improve their work-life Balance. The findings of this study can inform policy and practice interventions aimed at enhancing the well-being and job performance of women police officers in Ernakulam district and beyond.
