Описание: This book presents a realistic perspective on the paradoxes employees face when navigating work and personal responsibilities for career success. The author answers the critical question of how to achieve sustainable and rewarding work-life integration from a perspective of "both/and" rather than "either/or."

Therefore, integration activities are essential for easing the transition. This book examines various practices of integrating migrants in European countries from national, organizational and individual perspectives.

Описание: A satisfactory and healthy integration of work with other life domains is one of the key challenges of modern society. Work-life balance and work-life integration have become focal points of today’s human resource management practice and theory. Professionals who have been described as “extreme workers” regarding their work hours and engagement are under particular pressure to balance work and ”the rest of life”. This collection maps the increasingly extensive discussion of work-life issues for professionals and discusses key aspects in depth. What is work-life integration? What are the specific challenges for professionals? How do they manage their blurred work-life boundaries? How can companies intervene? Internationally leading authors discuss antecedents and individual and organizational outcomes of work-life integration, gender-specific perspectives and challenges as well as the use and usefulness of corporate work-life balance initiatives. In five sections distinguished researchers from across the world present experiences and research findings to provide a compendium of academic and applied research on the work-life integration of professionals. Cutting-edge research and novel theoretical perspectives make this collection a source of knowledge and inspiration for academic and business audiences interested in work-life integration issues in general and in the case of professionals in particular.
This chapter will develop the common thread across the five main sub-headings and how they jointly contribute to the multidimensional and multifunctional views advocated in the book. Thereafter, the chapter will give an overview of all the 14 chapters in the book.
2. Work-Life Integration: Overview and Trends
The chapter will begin by stating the meaning of the concepts: work-life conflict, life-work conflict and work-life integration and will present some research on their negative effects on individual and organizational productivity. It will trace the research journey on WLI bringing out the movement from scarcity model that leads to conflicts, to the positive psychology model which identifies mutual beneficial effects of involvement in multiple roles. It will present work-life integration as a way to ameliorate the negative effects of involvement in multiple roles and highlight sources of the integration. The chapter will also contribute to the debate of any difference and similarity between work-life balance and work-life integration which has never been resolved (Alton, 2018; Dresdale, 2016; Harrington & Ladge, 2009). It will review the research on WLI with the view to identifying the gap which the current book is to fill. It will justify the multidimensional approach to achieving WLI advocated in the book and show that past books and studies have neglected this.
B. Organizational Perspectives
3. Organizational Production Process and Work-Life Integration
Structural and production process issues have not been given much attention in the analysis of WLI in the past (Lambert et al., 2002). Hence, in this chapter, discussions will focus on the concept of productivity process as an integral aspect of work-life integration; what constitutes the elements of productivity at individual and organizational levels. Inter alia, the relationship that subsists between productivity process and work-life integration will be explored as a basis for a creative and integrated process flow both for individuals and organizations as units for building a healthy society. Discussions will also include the role of productivity procedure, elements of inputs and optimal output flow. The components of an ideal and practical productivity procedure and productivity quotient at individual and organizational levels will be explored, as well as identification of value-add component of work-life integration and its relationship with productivity.
Thus, major issues that will be addressed in this chapter include:
q Concept of productivity vis-а-vis work-life integration and the relationship that is inherently subsumed between work-life integration (WLI) and productivity at both the individual and organizational levels. Thus, the contents of this chapter will include the operational definition of WLI, productivity, factors affecting WLI and productivity value stream flow.
q Process flow perspective of productivity, work-life integration and factors impacting on work-life integration.
q What determines an optimal productivity procedure
q What are the critical inputs for an optimal productivity flow within an ideal work-life integration continuum
q Which outputs constitute value-add at individual and organizational levels vis-а-vis an ideal work-life integration.
q Prioritization: importance of prioritization hinged on work-life integration towards eliciting optimal productivity
q Time management and discipline as integral factors for productivity: Time wasters impacting on work-life integration and productivity at individual and organizationa

Описание: This book provides a comparative analysis of the impact of the economic crisis on the quality of work and work-life balance.
The Australian workplace continues to become more ethnically diverse as multiculturalism becomes a lived reality on a substantial scale. This change makes it vital to understand exclusionary or discriminatory practices and a detailed investigation of the potential relationship between work stress, acculturation, and its impact on emotional labour for minority group members has not been well researched.
The Ethnically Diverse Workplace: Experience of Immigrant Indian Professionals in Australia documents the perceptions and experiences of exclusion after inclusion by Indian immigrants, particularly professionals. Many of the reports of discriminatory practices towards Indian immigrants or their stigmatisation based on accent, skin tone or national origin are anecdotal in nature and this book will seek to explain such practices and their impacts on the Indian immigrant community.
The Ethnically Diverse Workplace works to encourage and promote greater awareness and understanding so that immigrant Indian professionals maybe better understood and served in Australia.
