More than half of 800 global senior executives are unsatisfied with their work-life balance, according to a BlueSteps.com survey. That's the highest dissatisfaction figure recorded since the survey began in 2006.
One problem is that 80% of BlueSteps executives say balance is critical in their decision whether to join or remain with an employer, but 82 per cent report their company does not have a program in place.
Of the 18 per cent of companies offering work-life balance programs, the most common components offered are working at home or a flexible daily work schedule, which are highly valued by respondents. It's no surprise that 70% of respondents feel that technology and globalization has decreased their leisure time.
An astounding statistic: almost one-third rate their career as “more”, or “as” important as their health.
What do you think the survey results would be for non-executives?
