THE GROWING PROPORTION OF GENERATION Z EMPLOYEES HAS SPARKED SIGNIFICANT INTEREST IN UNDERSTANDING THE CHARACTERISTICS AND PREFERENCES OF THIS GENERATION. THE PURPOSE OF THIS STUDY IS TO TO ASSESS THE WORK-LIFE BALANCE PERCEPTIONS OF GENERATION Z EMPLOYEES, WITH THE PRACTICAL PART CONDUCTED AMONG YOUNG EMPLOYEES IN ROMANIA. THE CHOICE OF THE TOPIC IS JUSTIFIED BY THE IMPORTANCE GIVEN BY YOUNG EMPLOYEES REGARDING THE BALANCE BETWEEN WORK AND PERSONAL LIFE, KNOWING HOWEVER THAT GENERATION Z IS NOT HOMOGENEOUS. THE RESEARCH OBJECTIVES ARE: (1) TO IDENTIFY THE STATUS OF GENERATION Z EMPLOYEES IN RELATION TO WORK-LIFE BALANCE, AND (2) TO DETERMINE HOW GENERATION Z EMPLOYEES PERCEIVE THEIR EMPLOYERS IN RELATION TO FOSTERING AN ORGANIZATIONAL ENVIRONMENT CONDUCIVE TO WORK-LIFE BALANCE. TO ACHIEVE THESE OBJECTIVES, A QUANTITATIVE SURVEY WAS CONDUCTED. THE KEY FINDINGS HIGHLIGHT THAT, FOR THE STUDIED SAMPLE, WORK-LIFE BALANCE HOLDS GREATER SIGNIFICANCE THAN EVEN GENEROUS REMUNERATION. PARTICIPANTS BELIEVE THAT THEY HAVE ACCESS TO RESOURCES THAT FACILITATE WORK-LIFE BALANCE IN THEIR COMPANIES, AND THAT THE CURRENT IMPLEMENTATION OF THE "WORK-LIFE BALANCE" CONCEPT MEETS THEIR EXPECTATIONS.
