The role of work has changed throughout the world due to
economic conditions and social demands.
Originally, work was a matter of necessity and survival. Throughout the years, the role of “work” has
evolved and the composition of the workforce has changed. Today, work still is a necessity but it
should be a source of personal satisfaction as well. One of the vehicles to help provide
attainment of personal and professional goals is work-life benefits and
programs.
Are work-life balance programs in existence as a result of a
social responsibility to employees or to provide a competitive advantage to
employers?
Before we can answer this question, we need to define what
work-life balance is. Many people think
of work-life balance only in the framework of what the company does for the
individual. However, work-life balance
is a two prong approach. The other prong
of work-life balance, which many individuals overlook, relates to what
individuals do for themselves.
According to Jim
Bird, “Work-life balance is meaningful
achievement and enjoyment in everyday life.” The primary way companies can help facilitate work-life balance for their employees
is through work-life programs and training.
Achievement and enjoyment at
work is a critical part of anyone’s work-life balance. Furthermore, achievement and enjoyment in the other three quadrants of one’s life (e.g.
family, friends and self) is critical as well.
