Organisations, careers and caring Paperback / softback
by Rosemary Crompton, Jane Dennett, Andrea Wigfield
Part of the Family and Work Series series
Paperback / softback
Description
With the increase in mothers' employment both the government and many employers are promoting flexible working policies to improve work-life 'balance'.
This report considers the effects of these changes on the lives of both women and men.
It examines three employment sectors in detail - banking, grocery retail and local authorities. Drawing on the views of employees themselves, the report:* assesses the impact of employment breaks and part-time working on the careers of women and men;* evaluates the effectiveness of work-life balance policies;* explores organisational cultures and systems and how they affect the implementation of these policies;* discusses attitudes to career development and its effects on family life.
