Work–life conflict has become a significant area of research due to the pressures of modern competitive lifestyles, due to that  both men and women must earn to support their families. Balancing work and family responsibilities, while maintaining organizational commitment, is especially challenging for nurses, who play a major  role in the health sector and often work long hours.This study focuses on the relationship between work-life conflict and organizational commitment among nurses in public sector hospitals in the Galle district in Sri Lanka. The primary objective is to investigate  this relationship and understand  the factors contributing to work-life conflict, its outcomes, and  solutions.The research is quantitative, also use  both primary and secondary data. A structured questionnaire was distributed  to the random  sample of 120 nurses, and the data were analyzed using Excel 2013, with results presented  tables, charts  and graphs.Findings show a significant negative relationship between work-life conflict and organizational commitment. Nurses must balance their work and family roles to strengthen their psychological bond with their hospitals. Hospital administrations should enhance organizational support to help nurses manage both domains, leading to increased commitment. It is beneficial  not only the organization but also the broader society by improving healthcare outcomes.
