The rapid advancement of digital technology has significantly shaped Generation Z's approach to work-life balance. This study aims to explore the challenges and implications of maintaining work-life balance and mental health-being among Generation Z employees in the digital industry. The research highlights the impact of flexible work arrangements, high work expectations, and constant connectivity on stress levels and job satisfaction. A qualitative approach was employed to gather insights from Generation Z workers, focusing on their experiences and coping mechanisms. Findings indicate that while flexible work environments offer advantages, they also blur the boundaries between work and personal life, contributing to burnout. Companies must adopt strategic human resource management policies to support employee health-being and foster a sustainable digital workforce
