abstract: 'The competing interests of employers, working parents, and very young
|
||||
|
||||
children collide in decisions over work schedules, child care
|
||||
|
||||
arrangements, promotions, children''s sicknesses, and overtime hours.
|
||||
|
||||
With the rising number of women in the labor force, more and more
|
||||
|
||||
employers are concerned about how their workers balance work and family
|
||||
|
||||
priorities. This article examines the supports that employers provide to
|
||||
|
||||
help parents with young children juggle demands on their time and
|
||||
|
||||
attention. It reviews the availability of traditional benefits, such as
|
||||
|
||||
vacation and health insurance, and describes family-friendly
|
||||
|
||||
initiatives. Exciting progress is being made in this arena by,leading
|
||||
|
||||
employers, but coverage remains uneven:
|
||||
|
||||
. Employers say they provide family-friendly policies and programs to
|
||||
|
||||
improve, staff recruitment and retention, reduce absenteeism, and
|
||||
|
||||
increase job satisfaction and company loyalty. Evaluations demonstrate
|
||||
|
||||
positive impacts on each of these valued outcomes.
|
||||
|
||||
. Employee benefits and work/family supports seldom reach all layers of
|
||||
|
||||
the work force, and low-income workers who need assistance the most are
|
||||
|
||||
the least likely to receive or take advantage of it.
|
||||
|
||||
. Understandably, employer policies seek to maximize productive work
|
||||
|
||||
time. However, it is often in the best interests of children for a
|
||||
|
||||
parent to be able to set work aside to address urgent family concerns.
|
||||
|
||||
The author concludes that concrete work/family supports like on-site
|
||||
|
||||
child care, paid leave, and flextime are important innovations.
|
||||
|
||||
Ultimately, the most valuable aid to employees would be a
|
||||
|
||||
family-friendly workplace culture, with supportive supervision and
|
||||
|
||||
management practices.'
