This study focused on the work-life balance and gender which was tested using t-test; and work-life balance in relation to workload experience at workplace, and work-life programme valued as important among staff at Ministry of Youth and Sports in Putrajaya, both of which were measured using Pearson correlation. The findings indicated that staff at the Ministry experienced a balance in their work-life, regardless of gender,while having intermediate level of workload at the workplace. The relationship between workload and work-life balance among staff was negatively correlated. Although work-life balance was reported at a satisfying level, none of the work-life programmes valued by the employees were associated significantly with work-life balance experienced by them. Nevertheless, there is hope that programmes valued by staff as important to them and capable of reducing workload levels are applicable for future considerationby respective parties in implementing policies related to the work-life programme.
