Summary/Abstract: This paper examines work-life balance, but more specifically work-from-home policies and how they help to create a balance, or imbalance, when individuals turn to these policies. The research question and the objectives of this research were constructed in such a way that we can focus both on the aspects of the professional life of the respondents and on their private life before work at home and after it starts. This document is a qualitative research applying a series of 10 interviews to people working in an IT company in Cluj-Napoca (Romania); these people working from home either since the beginning of the health crisis or joining this company in 2020.
