4 Ways To Give Your Employees A Life

Today’s employees define success differently. They may be just as committed to their profession as earlier generations, but not at the expense of health, home, and hobbies. Four ways to manage your employees so that careers are in harmony with home life:

1. Rethink the five-day work week. Flex time, job sharing, and telecommuting are ideas whose time has come.
2. Don’t make your work habit the norm. You hurt your employees and your companies by establishing a corporate culture of workaholics.
3. Invest in dependent day care. Employees with dependents can’t give their total commitment to their work if they’re worried about their children’s or parent’s care. Consider providing dependent care as a fringe benefit.
4. When an employee sacrifices family for the company, give the family a present. Send a plant, tickets to the movies, or a gift certificate. You’ll encourage the family’s continued support of your hardworking employees.
