| Abstract: | Managing the balance of work and family is of continued interest to employers and employees alike. Recent research suggests that this issue is no longer just a women's issue. Men's attitudes are becoming more like women's in that they too are demonstrating a greater interest in child rearing and turning down work situations that make it difficult for them to handle their family responsibilities. Hall (1990) suggests that men's careers are also being affected by family responsibilities. Many suggest that dual-income families and single parents need more flexible work schedules to handle the limitless numbes of situations that can arise when raising children. Without a flexible work schedule parents are often absent from work or distracted from doing their work. |
