Topic of the month for July - We’re talking about the importance of a work/life balance, and how, with today’s hectic lifestyle the majority of people are finding the balance tipping the wrong way!

Today’s culture seems to have more to do, in a lesser amount of time with the pressure to do it better, and this isn’t just within the workplace but also at home too!! How can this culture change OR what needs to give in order for people to get some balance back?

Businesses are being persuaded to address the work/life balance issue and the ones that have, have said it’s beneficial, and can actually lead to cost savings, improved motivation and higher productivity.

Research has shown that the majority of employees would welcome a flexible working environment, but there are still people who are reluctant to the idea due to the fact that it could have a detrimental effect on their career and if they are going to be working less hours, who will be taking on the workload?

We’ll be blogging about this throughout the month, so let us know your views and opinions on your work/life balance!
