Many managers and organizations still assume that employees who
devote long hours to their jobs with no family interference are
"ideal workers". However, this assumption has negative consequences
for employees, their families and, more interestingly, for their
organizations. This book provides a wealth of empirical evidence
from around the globe, as well as innovative conceptual frameworks,
to help practitioners and researchers alike to go beyond the
classic notion of the "ideal worker" and to rethink what companies
actually need from their employees. As it demonstrates, doing so
will be beneficial for countless men and women, and for society at
large.
