work life
Job and routine
Work life is the portion of one's existence devoted to employment and career—the hours, relationships, and activities tied to earning a living.
The term usually appears in contrast with personal or home life: She struggled to keep her work life separate from her family.
Work-life balance describes the effort to prevent professional demands from overwhelming everything else.
