My Dear Students,
When one enters the corporate world the toughest situation one faces is not just complying to the job needs but to strike a balance between the personal and professional life. This is the time the person realizes that there are so many variables in one’s life and each one has its own significance.
The major identifiable variables are:
Self
Family & Friends
Work
(Not in specific order)
Work-Life Balance is not only a matter of concern for the employees but also for the employers, as it has become one of the important tools for employee-retention. With the changing economic scenario the social-fabric is also undergoing a radical change and so also the workforce composition is changing. This is posing pressure on organizations to meet the demands of the new generation recruits.
Presently, the concept of work-life balance is changing to work-life effectiveness. But changing the name does not affect the impact of the idea. It’s only a matter of perception of individuals’ vis-à-vis organizations.
It is essential for both managers and employees to develop their knowledge and skills to craft their own best life work effectiveness. If so happens then the employer can realize a constructive impact on the growth of the organization and individuals will also have a better understanding of a satisfied and balanced life. They can sustain the job-stress and this will be reflected in their increased productivity and better interpersonal relationships both on and off the job.
