Today, main area of interest in an individual’s life is work and/or labor. However, in daily life, individuals play various life roles besides work. Sparing enough time to these roles and redressing the balance between them require extensive effort. For this reason, work-life balance becomes the subject of many academic studies and individual efforts to redress balance become a major topic in the literature. Work from home is a new work type that becomes widespread. It is claimed that work from home will have positive effects on work-life balance. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of work from home on work-life balance through the experiences of translators. Within the scope of this study work-life balance was defined, theoretical work-life balance approaches were researched and the factors that influence work-life balance, as well as individual efforts to redress balance between work and life, were investigated. Qualitative research method was used to obtain detailed information about the subject. Research data was collected from 12 translators, who were working from home, via face-to-face interview. Results showed that, demands of work had a negative effect on work-life balance. Participants living alone were more successful at balancing work and life, than participants sharing home with other people. It was found that work-life imbalance had negative effects on physical and psychological health.
