Exploration of work life balance in this new context has become imperative to deal this critical situation. This study intends to explore work life balance (WLB), family and work conflicts, work and family demands, satisfaction and challenges related with work from home and assessing their interrelationships and effects. It also measures the group differences based on demographic variables and the mediation effect of work family conflicts, and challenges of work from home in the relationship between WLB and satisfaction with work from home. The sample of the study was university teachers teaching from home to undergraduate and postgraduate classes during COVID-19. Data was collected using a self-developed questionnaire, administered online. Results suggest that majority of the respondents were balancing their lives with work from home and were satisfied with it but were facing work and family demands and conflicts while dealing family and work at a time under the same roof. The results revealed significant positive correlation between WLB and satisfaction with work from home, and negative association of, family and work conflict and demands and challenges of work from home with teachers’ satisfaction and WLB. Females, single and young teachers, with more work load were facing more work demands while staying at home as compared to males, married and senior teachers with less workload. The results indicated that the work family conflict and challenges of work from home had significant effect on satisfaction of university teachers’ work from home and were partially mediating the association between worklife balance and satisfaction with work from home. It was suggested that employees should make arrangements such as domestic help and rational distribution of time for both the roles to be more effective while working from home.  \nKeywords: Work life balance, Family and work conflicts, Work and family demands, Satisfaction and challenges of work from home  \n* Associate Professor, Department of Education, University of Sargodha.

Balancing and harmonizing time spent on work and personal life is work-life balance (Abioro, Oladejo, & Ashogbon, 2018) . Lockwood (2003) explains work-life balance as push-pull process between family responsibilities and work obligations. This balance when achieved, reduces role-conflict, work-life lopsidedness and is closely associated with satisfaction and effective functioning in life. The term“work-life balance” became popular in the 1980s when more females entered the workforce. This leads organizations to seek and study family-friendly employment opportunities, working from home, and work-life balance (Delecta, 2011; Felstead, Jewson, Phizacklea, & Walters, 2002). Guest (2002) explains there is sufficient and ample time to meet demands and commitments of work and home. Work-life balance is gained in a healthy and supportive work environment, enabling employees to handle work and their personal responsibilities and thus improving performance (Dhas, 2015) .  \nWork-life balance sustains happiness and achievement (Wolor, Solikhah, Fidhyallah, & Lestari, 2020) and an imbalance results in many undesirable consequences, not only for the individual but also for family, organization, and society at large. Workfamily conflict arises as a result of competing demands between the personal and professional roles.
