Journal Problem: HR
In analyzing the needs of the workforce, work-life balance is high on the list of issues facing both employers and employees. Balance between work and home lives is sought but rarely happens for long because of work-family conflict. This conflict is also linked with some other bad consequences such as stress; absenteeism; burnout; and dissatisfaction with job, family, and life-all of which can lead to excessive job turnover and the breakup of families. Would you consider flexible scheduling which allowed you to have work-life balance a benefit? Why, or why not? What step would you like to see your current (or previous) employer take to help enhance your own work-life balance? Explain the benefit to both you and the employer.
