Get the Balance Right

Synopsis: No organisation survives without the commitment, expertise and creativity of its people. Respecting their need for work-life balance, and finding innovative ways of organising work to make it possible, is vital. Evidence shows it results in direct bottom-line benefits for the organisation. It involves finding working practices that will best meet the company’s operational needs and customer requirements together with those of employees. Adopting a partnership approach, with responsibility on all sides, is the best way to make it work.
The video has been designed to: raise awareness of work-life issues and the business benefits; implement new strategies and build on existing practices; train managers in handling work-life balance within their teams.
