Everyday Human Resource Management : WORK-LIFE BALANCE

WHAT IS WORK-LIFE BALANCE?

Work-life balance is typically defined as the amount of time you spend doing your job versus the amount of time you spend doing what's important to you outside of work, whether that is with loved ones or pursuing personal interests and hobbies

WORKING FROM HOME

A good work-life balance means you can be happy and productive at work and also have time for yourself and your family. If you have a casual job or work from home, your days may not be clearly defined into work time and home time.

IMPORTANCE OF WORK-LIFE BALANCE

Not only is achieving a healthy work/life balance an attainable goal but workers and businesses alike see the rewards. When workers are balanced and happy, they are more productive, take fewer sick days, and are more likely to stay in their jobs.

IS IT THE KEY TO SUCCESS?

Employee Well-being Comes First: When employees feel that their well-being is valued, they're more likely to thrive. Work-life balance ensures that individuals have time for family, personal pursuits, and rest, promoting physical and mental health.

WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE?

It means having enough time for both work and leisure activities—and that is different for each person. It's a way to tackle work responsibilities, without losing time for you. An optimal work-life balance helps maintain physical and mental health, while remaining successful on the career path.

IS WORK-LIFE BALANCE ACHIEVABLE?

Yes, it is. When you prioritize your work-life balance, you're really prioritizing yourself and your business. Even if it seems like a pipe dream, achieving the balance between your work and your personal life is truly possible if you treat it as a goal, not a wish.
