• Description:
  Workforce changes in demographic composition, work attitudes, and employer expectations have led to increased attention to the interaction of employees' work and family lives. Work-family studies gained initial traction in the early 1980s, and it is currently a major area of study within work psychology. This chapter introduces the reader to basic constructs, including work-family balance, conflict, and enrichment and discusses research surrounding the domain-specific and domain-unspecific correlates of these constructs. Next it offers information regarding solutions from both the standpoint of organizations and national legislation. The chapter then presents a discussion of future research ideas. The study of the work and family interface is an important topic for many employed individuals. As the workforce continues to change, its significance will only grow. Although there is a substantial amount of previous research devoted to understanding work-family constructs, their correlates, and organizational and governmental initiatives, there is substantial room for additional research to understand contemporary issues as well as micro-processes.
