Cân bằng giữa công việc và gia đình

Một vấn đề lớn của phụ nữ tại nơi làm việc là làm thế nào để cân bằng giữa công việc và cuộc sống. May mắn thay, các công ty đang nhận ra rằng một phần của việc cân bằng việc chăm sóc các vấn đề gia đình, bao gồm cả việc nuôi dạy con cái, không chỉ là vấn đề của phụ nữ mà còn là vấn đề của đàn ông. Tạp chí Fortune gần đây đã đăng một số báo về các ông bố tại nơi làm việc và tác động mà việc cân bằng công việc / gia đình đang có đối với họ. Người tuyển dụng lao động cũng đang phải đối mặt với thực tế là nhiều người lao động là cha mẹ đơn thân. Gần 80% trẻ em ở quốc gia này đôi khi được nuôi dưỡng trong một hộ gia đình duy nhất trong cuộc đời của chúng. Điều này đặt ra nhiều mối quan tâm mới cho phụ nữ tại nơi làm việc.

Câu hỏi đối với một số người không trở thành, "Làm thế nào để tôi xuyên thủng trần kính?" Nhưng "Tôi có thực sự muốn làm việc chăm chỉ và thực hiện hy sinh cho gia đình mà tôi cần phải thực hiện để vượt qua nó không? Ngày càng có nhiều người, bao gồm cả phụ nữ và nam giới thành đạt và nổi tiếng-đang nói "Gia đình tôi là trên hết." Việc tôi là cha mẹ đơn thân và nuôi hai con nhỏ chắc chắn đã ảnh hưởng đến lựa chọn nghề nghiệp của tôi bây giờ. Điều quan trọng là tôi phải ăn sáng hàng ngày và ăn tối với các con. Tôi đã hủy bỏ bài thuyết trình lớn để đảm bảo tôi có mặt tại vở kịch Giáng sinh.
