The research focused on relationship between flexible working arrangements, work-life balance and job satisfaction in Karachi’s public universities. To investigate the null hypothesis that there is no relationship between these variables. Research design is descriptive as we determine the association between dependent and independent variables. Independent variable is flexible working arrangements which include: flexi-time, contractual working, work shifts and telecommuting, that are provided to employees to improve their productivity and maintain work-life balance. A structured questionnaire is designed to collect approximately 200-sample size via online and by university visits. Survey forms were distributed using random sampling method among more than nine different public universities of Karachi.
