abstract: 'This article discusses the need for improved work/life policies,
provides examples of successful and promising policy approaches, and
describes methods of assessing the costs and benefits of expanded
work/life supports. The current need arises from women''s influx into the
labor force, a decline in employer-provided benefits that support family
care, an inadequate supply of child care, and inequality in the
distribution of work/life benefits across income levels. Advocates in a
number of states are engaged in intensive advocacy to pass paid parental
leave and paid sick leave laws. Meaningful policy and programmatic
change requires building public will within governments, business, and
the general public. To achieve expansive policy change over the
long-term, innovative efforts are needed to build a broad-based
grassroots movement focused on work/life issues, to encourage businesses
to vocally endorse improved practices, and to cultivate policy maker
champions through improved female political representation.'
