I'm still improving the list but currently, here are some of the things I use to figure out if a company has good work-life balance (not all are required):

- Has 40 hour or less work weeks

- Rarely requires overtime work

- Has a good amount of paid time off (Bonus points if they encourage employees to take a time off, like they require you to utilize all your paid time off and/or they provide a bonus if you take a time off)

- Remote friendly

- Communication is asynchronous by default

- Well known publicly that the company value work-life balance

- Offers good employee benefits (e.g, https://basecamp.com/handbook/08-benefits-and-perks)
