The present study is intended to measure the impact of Work life balance, perceived work interference with family, perceived family interference with work on organizational commitment and performance and subsequently its impact on turnover intention. The study developed and tested a model of work life balance of teachers in self finance engineering colleges using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The model fit the data well and hypotheses are generally supported. Data is collected through Structured Questionnaire from 381 respondents. Data were analyzed through AMOS 20 version.
