- <p>ABSTRACT: For decades, the concept of “work–life balance” has framed how organisations address employee well-being. Yet in Malaysia’s digitised, post-pandemic economy—shaped by flexible-work provisions in the Employment Act amendments, rapid platformisation, and a young, diverse labour force-“balance” often implies a rigid either–or. This paper argues for work–life harmony, a dynamic approach that aligns work and nonwork roles with cultural values, organsational practices, and individual boundary preferences. Integrating boundary theories, enrichment perspectives, and the Job Demands–Resources (JD-R) model, we show how harmony unlocks engagement and performance while reducing conflict. We synthesise recent literature, spotlight five Malaysian case studies (finance, healthcare, public safety, manufacturing SMEs, and technology), and propose a practical harmony framework: (1) flexible design, (2) boundary clarity and control, (3) supportive leadership and norms, and (4) tech-enabled cadence and recovery. We conclude with recommendations for Malaysian employers and policymakers, noting limitations and research gaps.</p>
