Book Synopsis Work/Family Conflicts by : Bradley K. Googins
Download or read book Work/Family Conflicts written by Bradley K. Googins and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1991 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work/Family Conflicts describes a social earthquake which, without our knowledge, is changing the fiber of our lives. Conflicts inherent to complex work/family issues are being felt within and among three sectors: the family, the corporation, and society at large. These conflicts deny easy solutions and are aggravated as they bump up against social, economic, and cultural realities. According to Bradley Googins, all three sectors must ultimately appreciate their roles in the conflicts and accept some responsibility for resolving them. He focuses on the roles played by society and families and stresses the need to ignore simplistic solutions. He looks instead toward creative understandings, new partnerships, and the courage to confront dysfunctional structures, attitudes, and social arrangements. The ultimate goal is healthy and productive families and workplaces. Googins divides his volume into ten chapters. His first chapter provides an overview reflecting the magnitude of the issues. He then outlines a framework--examining issues at four levels: individuals, families, corporations, and governments. Salient changes, conflicts, and impacts are discussed at each level. Chapter three analyzes the development of work/family relationships over several centuries. Googins presents the findings of the Boston University Balancing Job and Homelife Study in chapter four. This study provides his research base. Viewing work/family conflicts from the perspective of today's families, chapter five looks at family members while chapter six and seven cover childcare and elder dependent care. Chapter eight identifies society's megaconflicts, chapter nine outlines the types of initiatives which have begun in response to these conflicts. A final chapter takes a look at the challenges and possibilities ahead of us.

Book Synopsis Work-life Conflict and Wellness by : Jessica Lynn McKenzie
Download or read book Work-life Conflict and Wellness written by Jessica Lynn McKenzie and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The workplace in the United States is one of the most significant sources of stress for both men and women due to changing dynamics within both the workforce and family life. Several factors contribute to these changes including the increased numbers of women joining the workforce and the growing number of families with dual income earning status. Other factors that have contributed to the difference in the way people work include extended working hours and workers taking on more responsibility while trying to balance family tasks such as caring for children. Coinciding with this are traditional societal norms that dictate women should care for children while men assume the breadwinner role. This ideology is no longer practical for many modern couples. Notably, research has shown young men and women seem to be ready for a change to less traditional roles. As gender-related societal norms change, women are becoming more empowered to make unconventional decisions between motherhood, marriage, and a career. However, the workplace may not be ready for these changes as disparities between men and women in the workplace still exist with women having to work exponentially harder to establish equality. Additionally, women are portrayed differently in the workforce than men making it a significant obstacle for women's career advancement. The drawback may arrive when women who wish to take on multiple roles in both the workplace and in family life are faced with the quandary of assimilating conflicting roles and responsibilities. These efforts may come at a cost with regards to women's health-related outcomes and overall quality of life. For these reasons, it is essential that research consider gender in the ways people negotiate home and work life roles and how these factors limit or enhance a women's family and career aspirations. As stress from these factors continues to grow, it is vital for individuals in the workforce or people pursuing higher education to be equipped to manage their work and family lives for achieving a desirable quality of life. Research on the interface of work and family domains have intensified because of significant consequences from these fundamental changes and the work-family interconnections as it relates to health outcomes (Kossek & Lee, 2017). Using the theoretical model developed by Greenhaus and Beutell (1985), the present study investigated three domains of work-family conflict: time-based conflict, strain-based conflict, and behavior-based conflict and its impact on work and life domains. In addition, links between gender and work-family conflict caused by increased blurring of work and non-work life activities was examined. The present study attempts to draw a comprehensive picture of traditional and evolving gender roles and how it relates to work-life conflict. Self-reported data from 62 graduate students was collected and analyzed using moderated multiple regression analysis. Results indicated a significant relationship between life satisfaction and work-family conflict; greater work-family conflict was associated with lower life satisfaction. In addition, greater work-family conflict was associated with higher psychological distress. Finally, greater life satisfaction was associated with lower psychological distress. Results generally support the notion that processes within life settings such as work, home, and school are associated with work-life satisfaction. The findings from this study did not show evidence that coping strategies moderated the relationship between work-family conflict, psychological distress, and life satisfaction.

This book was released on 2022-07-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION The phenomenon of work-family conflict is a worldwide issue and attracts the attention of behavioural scientists and mental health specialists. Traditionally, men were breadwinners and women were homemakers who looked after and took care of family needs. In that respect, work and family domains were considered mutually exclusive and there was minor attention towards outcome of work-family interference. But in recent years, work scenario has changed as more and more women are joining various job positions. Modernizations in terms of economic growth, globalization and equality in opportunities have impacted the work life and employees' well- being (Panatik, Badri et al., 2011). Women workers have started contributing in volume in work sector, and this contribution is expected to rise with time. In India also, particularly before independence, the women from middle and upper classes were mostly confined to their homes. However, with the formation and implementation of many protective laws and legislations for women, enhancement of educational facilities and advent of globalization; there has emerged a newer professional class of women workers from middle and upper class of the economy. Thus, Indian women are also trying to attain a new place in the world of work. Women of the present time are performing multiple roles such as that of a mother, an employee and a homemaker etc. Thus, more and more women are juggling their dual roles of family and career. Woman at job has a dual role to play towards work as well as family and failure to extend her contribution with equal efficiency makes her feel tensed which in turn give rise stress and a threat to mental health. Therefore, it is required to balance work and life efficiently. The issue of work-family conflict is strongly inclined towards combining work and family related research. Research is focused now on issues like effect of work stressors on home life, and the link of family stressors with,

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All parents experience stress as they attempt to meet the challenges of caring for their children. This comprehensive book examines the causes and consequences of parenting distress, drawing on a wide array of findings in current empirical research. Kirby Deater-Deckard explores normal and pathological parenting stress, the influences of parents on their children as well as children on their parents, and the effects of biological and environmental factors. Beginning with an overview of theories of stress and coping, Deater-Deckard goes on to describe how parenting stress is linked with problems in adult and child health (emotional problems, developmental disorders, illness); parental behaviors (warmth, harsh discipline); and factors outside the family (marital quality, work roles, cultural influences). The book concludes with a useful review of coping strategies and interventions that have been demonstrated to alleviate parenting stress.

Book Synopsis The Art of Balancing Work-Family Conflict by : Rosern Rwampororo
Download or read book The Art of Balancing Work-Family Conflict written by Rosern Rwampororo and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for all working mothers struggling to find a balance between work and family. The enormous increase of women in the labor force, especially mothers with young children has led to significant work-family conflict. This book draws on role theory to explain stress for women as stemming from competing worker and family roles (as stressors). Traditional gender roles cause stressors which differ for men and women. Yet the latter continue to shoulder a disproportionate share of domestic responsibilities as they take on roles as workers. The analysis suggests that the effects of stressors or stress can be reduced by drawing on different forms of social support. Family/ childcare support and social networks are used as examples functional and structural social support respectively. The central goal of this book is to demonstrate the positive effect of social support on reducing stressors, especially for working women. The results show childcare and family support reduced the effects of stressors in both wives and husbands, but more so in wives. All forms reduced effects of stress on health, in husbands more than in wives.

This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In India, labour market is changing very rapidly. With this the workplace culture is also changing. The capitalist work culture is also affecting the socio-cultural status of Indians. At the capitalist workplace, employees are working like machine. The work culture is now marked by high payments, great perks and incentives as well as other facilities. However, the negative aspect of this culture is seen in long working hours, less family bonding, neglect of family responsibilities, difficulty in taking care of children, health issues at early age and increased stress and anxiety. There are several studies showing that capitalist work place is affecting not only the labour but also the culture market. It is creating difficulty in balancing work with family. The respective roles to be played within the workplace and the family has spill over each other. Work has entered the homes of several working people, who find it difficult to cope with the dual responsibility of work and family life. The present work is aimed at exploring the work family conflict faced by Indian working women in the current scenario.
Book Synopsis Making Motherhood Work by : Caitlyn Collins
Download or read book Making Motherhood Work written by Caitlyn Collins and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work-family conflict that mothers experience today is a national crisis. Women struggle to balance breadwinning with the bulk of parenting, and social policies aren't helping. Of all Western industrialized countries, the United States ranks dead last for supportive work-family policies. Can American women look to Europe for solutions? Making Motherhood Work draws on interviews that Caitlyn Collins conducted over five years with 135 middle-class working mothers in Sweden, Germany, Italy, and the United States. She explores how women navigate work and family given the different policy supports available in each country. Taking readers into women's homes, neighborhoods, and workplaces, Collins shows that mothers' expectations depend on context and that policies alone cannot solve women's struggles. With women held to unrealistic standards, the best solutions demand that we redefine motherhood, work, and family.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite its inherent joys, the challenges of parenting can produce considerable stress. These challenges multiply—and the quality of parenting suffers—when a parent or child has mental health issues, or when parents are in conflict. Even under optimal circumstances, the constant changes as children develop can tax parents' inner resources, often undoing the best intentions and parenting courses.

Designed for use in mental health contexts, its methods are effective whether parents or children have behavioral or emotional issues.

The book dovetails with other clinical mindfulness approaches, and is written clearly and accessibly so that professionals can learn the material easily and impart it to clients. Featured in the text: Detailed theoretical, clinical, and empirical foundations of the program. The complete Mindful Parenting manual with guidelines for eight sessions and a follow-up.
