Questionnaire On Work Life Balance For Women IT Professionals

Hi Everybody,

My name is Namrata V. Ojha. I am currently pursuing my MBA in HR, and I need your help in completing the attached questionnaire. The questionnaire is based on my final year project, and the topic is 'Work-Life Balance of women employees in the IT sector.' I am seeking assistance from all women employees working in the IT sector to kindly fill out the questionnaire. It would be greatly appreciated if you could spare 10 to 15 minutes to complete my questionnaire.

Thank you.

Dear Namrata,

I had a quick look at your questionnaire. Seeking personal details at the outset may put some respondents off. To improve the response rate, I suggest that you use a web-based survey. This method will enable people to respond without having to download your questionnaire, answer, save, and upload it again. Additionally, it helps maintain confidentiality.

Thank you.

Hi Namrata,

Can you please try now? This issue may be due to the request filter we enabled. It should work now.

Regards, Sid

Dear Namrata,

The questions are all "over the place". Proper categorization provides flow that encourages respondents to complete the questionnaire.

Example:

1. Include an "introduction message" explaining why you are doing this survey, the usage of the results, and whether results will be shared, etc. Give attention to assurance on data confidentiality.

2. Respondent Profile - further categorize into personal details & working details (as per Mr. Simhan's advice to include it on the last page of the questionnaire).

3. Question proper - categorize into Work questions & Life questions (question 10 falls into this section) / separate scale-rated questions (you are using too many types of scales; try to use a standardized scale by reformatting all your questions into "Experiential questions") and open-ended questions (when you have open-ended questions, please be prepared to do a "coding analysis" - i.e. to read through all the responses to determine a common theme).

4. Include a "thank you message" at the end of the survey to show appreciation.

Dear Namrata,

Autumn Jane has given you sound advice on structuring the questionnaire. Sid, the Administrator, has made changes. Thanks, Sid, for the prompt action. There are other students in the same situation.

The subject is very useful. Work and life are two sides of a coin that need coordination. An imbalance of either will ruin the other. You must allocate time to meet both demands. They should never get mixed up. The workplace must not be used for domestic purposes, or vice versa. However, my final word is to give priority to life over a period of time since you need to maintain family-knitted relations as it is an eternal contribution to your next generation.

Thank you so much. You all have really helped me a lot in doing this. But Sid, I have been trying hard to post the link of my questionnaire which is in the format of Google Docs but somehow I am unable to do it. If you can do something, it will be of great help. Thank you.
