Work–life balance W ork–life balance is a concept including the proper prioritization between work (career and ambition) and lifestyle (health, pleasure, leisure, family). The work–leisure dichotomy was invented in the mid-1800s. Most research on work–life balance concentrates on the experiences of the mothers of young children. However, lack of work–life balance is a problem for men as well as women, and for the parents of older, as well as preschool, children. Our research contributes to the literature in exploring the experiences of men as well as women in mid-life, most of whom had teenage (or older) children. Despite the similarities in the current work and family circumstances of these men and women, our data suggest that gender remains interwoven in the business of negotiating home and work life. Our methodology meant that respondents were free to choose the situations and times in their lives when they felt it had been most difficult to reconcile paid work and other areas of life. It was notable that the female respondents discussed their current and varied concerns about juggling paid work, adult children and ageing parents, while the men tended to locate problems of work–life balance in the past; often when paid work conflicted with the demands of raising young children. Thus, while the presence of children in the household was associated with a lack of work–life balance for both men and women, these difficulties lasted longer, and took more complicated forms, for women. Our data suggest that, across the life course, women are seen as being responsible for maintaining smooth, or preferably imperceptible, transitions between the worlds of home and work life. As Loscocco (1997) argues, ‘changes in gender consciousness are the “final frontier” in the quest for greater gender equality in work–family linkages’. Yüklə 39,84 Kb. Dostları ilə paylaş:
