Work-Life Balance Course :Course Outline

A healthy balance should be maintained between work and home life. It is important as it increases productivity, it improves mental and physical health and it increases morale. An imbalance could be caused by poor health, absenteeism by oneself or one’s co-workers and burnout. An employee should use the company’s resources to change work conditions to encourage a work-life balance and companies should have resources in place. By offering employees more control over their lives reduces stress to the employee and gains the loyalty and productiveness of workers for the company. Another resource may be the company’s employee assistance program; a good program would offer employees assistance with personal crises, work stress, finances and substance abuse. Knowing how to manage your time between work and home is essential. Most people feel that time is not within their control, however time management teaches skills that become routines which become habits – these are all time saving techniques, for example setting out the following day’s clothes the night before. Learning to say no and being flexible with schedules are also time management techniques. Traditional working style may cause imbalance for some employees, having an alternative way to work could rectify that imbalance and increase productivity. There are several alternatives which the employee and the company could discover together such as telecommuting, job sharing, job redesign and flexi time. Stress is an inevitable part of work life balance; if you don’t have an effective stress management method you could experience lasting psychological and physical damage. It is commonly known that exercise is a great health benefit, but it is also a vital aspect to reducing and managing stress. Being consistent in your exercise routine increases the benefits of this method. we offer a few tips on how this can be achieved: Choose an activity that you will enjoy and repeat consistently. Begin your routine or activity at a slow pace and build up to higher levels so that you don’t tire yourself out. Make your exercise routine a priority, make sure you invest time in your activity and don’t cast it aside for other things on your schedule. In closing, effective stress reduction methods such as exercise and getting ample amounts of sleep help you to balance your work life with your home life while giving priority status to both. 1.
