dc.description.abstract This study was conducted to investigate work-life balance policies among generational cohorts: evidence from University of Cape Coast, Ghana. This study reinforces the differences that exist among generational cohorts causing complex organisational challenges. Descriptive research design was employed. Stratified random sampling technique was adopted to select a total of 333 respondents out of a population of 714. Closed ended questionnaires was used to collect data which was analysed using means, ANOVA and MANOVA. The study discovered that differences existed among generational cohorts’ preference for flexible work arrangement, wellness and personal development policies and dependent care assistance, but no differences existed in Leave Arrangement. Also, with the exception of Generation Y which showed differences in gender of Wellness and Personal Development construct, no differences were found in gender among the cohorts. It was recommended that work-life balance policies need to take into consideration generational differences and be revised to make adjustment for the new generations en_US
