The Working Week 133

The phrase "work-life balance" is widely used, but as Wayne hears on this week's Working Week, it is also misleading.

Why? Because every individual has a unique set of work and personal realities. There's no "right" answer, or work/life balance, it is the "fit" between work and life that really matters – and that's something that changes countless time over the course of an individual's life and career.

Wayne talks to Cali Yost, founder of Work+Life Fit, who starts from the premise that everyone's circumstances are different and so top-down flexible work arrangement policies tend not to be effective. In other words, one size does NOT fit all.

As Cali explains, work-life flexibility is much more than an HR policy or perk. It's a management strategy and philosophy that helps organisations to service customers better, manage resources smarter, work more efficiently and productively and save costs in areas such as real estate, technology, health care and energy.
