Work and Life Integration - Organizational, Cultural, and Individual Perspectives (Paperback, New)

Work-family researchers have had much success in encouraging both organizations and individuals to recognize the importance of achieving greater balance in life. The imbalance between work and family is detrimental to the organization in terms of stress, quality of life, and personal effectiveness and efficiency. At the heart of the work/life problems is the increasing complexity of modern life. Work and Life Integration addresses the intersect between work, life, and family in new and interesting ways. It discusses current challenges in dealing with work-life integration issues and sets the stage for future research agendas. The book enlightens the research community and informs the public debates on how workplaces can be made more family sensitive by providing contributions from psychologists, sociologists, and economists who have not shied away from asserting the policy implications of their findings. This text appeals to both practitioners and academics interested in seeking ways to creative meaningful lives.
