  ABSTRACT: The study aims to explore and see the effect of work-related stress/job stress on the Work Life Balance of nurses. The rationale of this study is to analyse the relationship between job stress and Work Life Balance among Indian nurses. The study tries to find out whether high job stress is leading to low work-life balance among Indian Nurses. A total of 163 nurses consisting of 74% females and 27% males and the age group of 20 - 68 years was selected. For this study, all the participants were asked to fill two questionnaires developed by Neal Whitten and The American Institute of Stress (AIS) using online survey platform “Google Forms”. The age of all participants was between 20 - 68 years and the nurses had work experience between 1-30 years on an average from all the participants. The nurses were informed about the purpose of the study and their consent was taken prior to data collection. The 45-item questionnaire developed by Neal Whitten was used to measure Work Life Balance and the 10-item questionnaire developed by the American Institute of Stress (AIS) was used to measure Work Place Stress. The results from all the male and female nursing professionals within the age group (20 - 68) found that there exists a negative correlation between the variables Job Stress and Work Life Balance. The findings from the study propose the importance of timely screening of the levels of job stress and develop skills to minimize job stress to have a better work life balance.
