Work-life balance is a buzz word for employees and employers. Yet just 23% of employers feel they excel at helping employees balance work-life demands.
Work-life balance is a buzz word, not just for employees, but also for employers. That’s because work-life balance is essential when creating a healthy, productive workplace.
Chronic stress is one of the most common health issues in the workplace. Too much stress over a long period of time can lead to burnout. Burnout can lead to fatigue, mood swings, irritability, and decreased work performance.
According to the 2017 Randstad Employer Brand research report, 45% of surveyed employees said good work-life balance is an important attribute when gauging the attractiveness of an organization.
