These conditions may invariably affect how well they will be able to balance their work and personal lives concurrently. Notwithstanding these causal relationships, the working conditions of lecturers’ can influence their work-life balance. As such, the purpose of this study was to assess the effect of University lecturers’ mental workload and job satisfaction on their work-life balance. The study adopted a quantitative approach and sampled 312 University lecturers from the University of Ghana, Accra.
