Nearly Two-Thirds of Women Have Good Work/Life Balance
Kenexa’s study found that 62% of women claimed to have achieved a good balance between their personal lives and their working lives. This might sound slightly nebulous, but in fact the question was defined in rather more detail: women were asked if their routine allowed them to hit targets at work while devoting enough attention to their personal lives. Apparently, they’re more likely to achieve this enviable status if they’re satisfied at work with low levels of stress; if they enjoy (or even ‘get excited about’) work; if they feel there there’s a ‘promising future’ for them at their workplace, despite having children; and if they feel their contribution is valued by their employer.
