Work/Family Conflicts describes a social earthquake which, without our knowledge, is changing the fiber of our lives. Conflicts inherent to complex work/family issues are being felt within and among three sectors: the family, the corporation, and society at large. These conflicts deny easy solutions and are aggravated as they bump up against social, economic, and cultural realities. According to Bradley Googins, all three sectors must ultimately appreciate their roles in the conflicts and accept some responsibility for resolving them. He focuses on the roles played by society and families and stresses the need to ignore simplistic solutions. He looks instead toward creative understandings, new partnerships, and the courage to confront dysfunctional structures, attitudes, and social arrangements. The ultimate goal is healthy and productive families and workplaces. Googins divides his volume into ten chapters. His first chapter provides an overview reflecting the magnitude of the issues. He then outlines a framework--examining issues at four levels: individuals, families, corporations, and governments. Salient changes, conflicts, and impacts are discussed at each level. Chapter three analyzes the development of work/family relationships over several centuries. Googins presents the findings of the Boston University Balancing Job and Homelife Study in chapter four. This study provides his research base. Viewing work/family conflicts from the perspective of today's families, chapter five looks at family members while chapter six and seven cover childcare and elder dependent care. Chapter eight identifies society's megaconflicts, chapter nine outlines the types of initiatives which have begun in response to these conflicts. A final chapter takes a look at the challenges and possibilities ahead of us.

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,0, University of Mannheim, language: English, abstract: Over the last decades the state and employers have acknowledged the importance of dealing with the work-family interface. In order to guide legislation and employers it is crucial to know which kind of initiatives are effective in helping employees fulfill the demands of work and family. This and other reasons have lead to a required increase of scholar interest in the work-family interface. This thesis integrates research findings concerning the characteristics of organizational culture that help to reduce work-family conflicts and investigates some variables possibly influencing the relationship between characteristics of the organizational culture and work-family conflict. However only the impact of supportive supervision and flexible work arrangements on work-family conflicts are elaborated. The thesis is structured as follows. Firstly, the relevant concepts are defined and it is explained how work-family conflicts arise including the underlying most common theories. Afterwards, a comprehensive and qualitative review of the state of research concerning the impact of characteristics of organizational culture on work-family conflicts in 2016 s given. Finally, the findings and limitations of this thesis are discussed and suggestions for future research are made.

What are the effects of conflict between home and work? Does work stress affect those who live with you? In the rapidly changing modern work environment, time pressures seem ever increasing and new technology allows work to be conducted any time and anywhere. These are just two of the factors that make it more and more difficult for working men and women to integrate work and home life. Consequently, there is a need for flexible and innovative solutions to manage the work-home interface. Work-Life Balance: A Psychological Perspective presents up-to-date information on work-home issues, including the latest research findings. The book’s emphasis is strongly psychological, with a focus on practical solutions, and includes chapters which deal with psychological issues such as the conflict between work and family, how work stresses may affect partners, and recovery from work. It also includes sections on legal issues, as well as examples of initiatives being implemented by leading employers. Contributors are drawn from the leading researchers in their fields and reflect the international character of the current challenges facing employers and employees. Its practical focus and innovative approach make this an essential book for managers, HR professionals and organizational psychologists, as well as students in these disciplines. The theoretical basis and research focus mean the book will also be invaluable for researchers investigating workplace issues.

Work-family conflict has become a prominent topic in the field of management over the last several decades in response to societal changes such as dual-earner and single-parent families (Bianchi & Milkie, 2010; Ho, Cheung, Liu, Chen, & Worthington, 2013; Iqbal, Iqbal, Ameer, & Marium, 2012). Recognition that a conflict exists between workers' responsibilities at work and those same workers' responsibilities at home has made work-family conflict a significant topic in many businesses (Ho et al., 2013). In family businesses where work roles and family roles commingle, work-family conflict has more prodigious effects on success of the family and success of the business than in other organizations (Werbel & Danes, 2010; Wu, Chang, & Zhuang, 2010). Much of the work-family conflict literature focused on corporate employees (Bianchi & Milkie, 2010; Iqbal et al., 2012) and those in multi-generational family businesses (Prottas & Thompson, 2006). Only a small portion o f the research concentrated on the self-employed, and even less research focused on investigating marital partners living and working together (Bjdmberg & Coyle-Shapiro, 2009

In today's industrialized societies, the majority of parents work full time while caring for and raising their children and managing household upkeep, trying to keep a precarious balance of fulfilling multiple roles as parent, worker, friend, & child. Increasingly demands of the workplace such as early or late hours, travel, commute, relocation, etc. conflict with the needs of being a parent. At the same time, it is through work that people increasingly define their identity and self-worth, and which provides the opportunity for personal growth, interaction with friends and colleagues, and which provides the income and benefits on which the family subsists. The interface between work and family is an area of increasing research, in terms of understanding stress, job burn out, self-esteem, gender roles, parenting behaviors, and how each facet affects the others. The research in this area has been widely scattered in journals in psychology, family studies, business, sociology, health, and economics, and presented in diverse conferences (e.g., APA, SIOP, Academy of Management). It is difficult for experts in the field to keep up with everything they need to know, with the information dispersed. This Handbook will fill this gap by synthesizing theory, research, policy, and workplace practice/organizational policy issues in one place. The book will be useful as a reference for researchers in the area, as a guide to practitioners and policy makers, and as a resource for teaching in both undergraduate and graduate courses.

Questions about the causes or sources of work stress have been the subject of considerable research, as well as public fascination, for several decades. Earlier interest in this issue focused on the question of whether some jobs are simply more inherently stressful than others. Other questions that soon emerged asked whether some individuals were more prone to stress than others. The Handbook of Work Stress focuses primarily on identifying the different sources of work stress across different contexts and individuals.

Based on a sweeping, ten country study, The Work-Family Interface in Global Context comprises the most comprehensive and rigorous cross-cultural study of the work-family interface to date. Just as work-family conflict is associated with negative consequences for workers, organizations, and societies, so too can the work and family domains interact positively to enhance or enrich one another. Drawing on qualitative, quantitative, and policy-based data, chapters in this collection explore the influence of culture on the work-family interface in order to help researchers and managers understand the applicability of work-family models in a variety of contexts and further conceptualize work-family interactions through the development of a more universal knowledge.
