In our review, we see a striking lack of theoretical and empirical studies on the intersection of sustainability and employee well-being. Most of the literature also deals with these areas separately, without much effort to put them together under NEP 2020. While the policy explicitly endorses equitable, equal, and innovative visions of sustainability in higher education, employee well-being has seldom been considered a focus of policy action literature. Thus, the necessity of focusing on the well-being of higher education workforce not as a background, but rather as an essential element that can support sustainability outcomes in the context of Indian HEIs has been emphasized in this review. which involves employee well-being in higher education as a fundamental dimension that can enhance the sustainability performance of Indian HEIs.</span></em></p> <p> </p>
