The work life balance and employee wellbeing

We each need to make choices about what we want in our world so we can better manage all its parts according to our individual priorities, aspirations and values.
That term, ‘work-life balance’ has been around since 1986. Like many buzzwords it was first used in the United States in relation to the perceived proliferation of Americans who were working longer and longer hours, usually to the detriment of their family life.
