Abstract The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between Work-Life Balance (WLB) and Quality of Life (QOL) among Millennials and Generation Z employees through a quantitative correlational research design. To achieve this purpose, the Work-Life Balance Scale (Hayman, 2005) and the Quality of Life Scale (Schalock & Keith, 1993) were used to collect data from 200 employees of different sectors and industries, comprising 129 Millennials and 71 members of Generation Z. The results of the present quantitative study revealed through descriptive statistics that the mean for QOL is 83.74 (SD = 9.037), and the mean for WLB is 38.93 (SD = 7.949). Furthermore, the findings of the present quantitative study revealed through inferential statistics that there is a positive correlation between Work-Life Balance and Quality of Life at a 95% confidence interval (r = 0.160, p = 0.024), indicating that as work-life balance improves, quality of life also increases. Additionally, the findings revealed through independent samples t-test statistics that there is a significant difference between the two generations regarding their quality of life at a 95% confidence interval (t(180.98) = -2.221, p = 0.028), as Generation Z reported a higher mean for QOL (85.48) than Millennials (82.78). On the other hand, no significant difference was reported between the two generations regarding their levels of work-life balance at a 95% confidence interval (p = 0.448).
