<p>The profound transformation of work models, particularly the widespread adoption of online and hybrid arrangements, necessitates a deeper understanding of their impact on employee well-being. This research paper provides a comprehensive review of the intricate connections between psychological resilience, work-life balance, and emotional burnout within these evolving environments. It explores the conceptual foundations of each construct, identifies the unique characteristics and inherent challenges of online and hybrid work, and analyses the complex interplay among these critical factors. This paper highlights how work-life imbalance can lead to burnout, how psychological resilience serves as a vital protective mechanism, and how the digital context exacerbates existing stressors while introducing new demands. Furthermore, it discusses evidence-based individual and organizational strategies to foster resilience, promote work-life balance, and mitigate burnout.</p> <p>Three interrelated concepts emotional burnout, work-life balance, and psychological resilience emerge as crucial to understanding employee well-being within this changing paradigm. For people to successfully navigate the inherent uncertainties and demands of modern work, psychological resilience, which is defined as the ability to adapt to adversity is essential. A person's general quality of life and productivity are significantly impacted by work-life balance, which includes the fair allocation of time and contentment between the personal and professional spheres. On the other hand, emotional burnout marked by fatigue, cynicism, and decreased achievement is a serious and harmful consequence of ongoing, unchecked workplace stress.</p>

<p>As India progresses towards its ambitious goal of becoming a developed nation by 2047, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reporting has emerged as a critical enabler of sustainable and inclusive growth. This study examines the strategic contribution of ESG reporting in aligning corporate practices with the developmental pillars of Viksit Bharat 2047. Using a descriptive and analytical approach based on secondary data, the research evaluates BRSR and CSR disclosures of Indian listed companies, government reports, and national indices.</p> <p>The findings reveal that ESG-oriented initiatives significantly contribute to areas such as education, healthcare, gender equity, renewable energy, and rural development, thereby enhancing corporate reputation, investor confidence, and long-term value creation. However, the study also identifies challenges including the voluntary nature of ESG reporting, lack of standardization, risks of greenwashing, and low participation of MSMEs. The paper concludes that ESG reporting, if strengthened through standardized frameworks, mandatory compliance, and robust monitoring mechanisms, can become a transformative tool to achieve a socially just, environmentally responsible, and economically strong India by 2047.</p> <p><strong>Research gap and contribution: </strong>While several studies have explored ESG reporting, very few have specifically linked it with India’s long‑term developmental vision of Viksit Bharat 2047. Existing literature mostly focuses on ESG impact on firm value, investor perception or CSR trends, but does not examine how ESG disclosure can become a strategic driver for national goals.</p> <p>This paper attempts to bridge this gap by:</p> <ul> <li>Mapping ESG initiatives of Indian companies with the five pillars of Viksit Bharat 2047.</li> <li>Highlighting challenges such as greenwashing, voluntary participation of SMEs, and lack of uniform standards.</li> <li>Suggesting a policy-level roadmap to make ESG a tool for inclusive and sustainable growth.</li> </ul>
