The purpose of this study is to examine support policies regarding work and family reconciliation, to suggest plans to improve workplace policies, and to suggest directions for further studies. This study looks at OECD's work-life reconciliation policies as well as family friendly workplace policies in Korea to find a way to enhance business' receptiveness and implementation of the policies. By examining women's labor conditions, this study finds that family friendly workplace policies are necessarily imminent in our society of low fertility and ageing. Along with the evaluation of benefit level and the effectiveness of current policies, this study uses data from interviews with working mothers who have had the experience of family friendly benefits. The results of the analyses suggest that the government should focus on improving the workplace environment in companies that do not show bias against the use of family friendly policies. In order to farm more successful policies, future studies are needed to analyze the changes of fertility, working conditions, support programs, and benefits.

This study attempts to examine the effect of family friendly work policies on the work-family balance of employed married women with young children. While previous research has investigated the effects of family friendly work policies, the effects has often been confounded with the effects of other covariates such as worker's and workplace's characteristics. In this study, we try to distinguish the effects of the family friendly work policies from those of other covariates. We draw a sample of 131 employed married women with children under age 12 from the $2^{nd}$ National Korean Family Survey. We compare the level of work-famiy balance of the women by the type of workplace: public sector, large enterprise, medium enterprise, and small enterprise. The results of this study show that some of the differences in the work-family balance of the women working in the different type of workplace can be attributed to socio-demographic background of the women and the work characteristics of workplace. There is, however, an effect of family friendly policies on the work-family balance between those who work in public sector and in medium enterprise after controlling the effects of the covariates.

본 연구는 중소규모 기업이 밀집해 있는 지역에 소재한 중소규모 기업 대표 및 인사담당자를 대상으로 가족친화경영 및 가족친화인증에 대한 인식을 탐색하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 2017년 10월부터 11월까지 기업 대표 및 인사담당자 6인을 대상으로 초점집단면접을 실시하였다. 본 연구결과 연구참여자들이 속한 기업 중 가족친화인증을 받은 기업은 없었으나, 모든 기업에서 출산전후휴가, 육아휴직, 근로시간 단축 등 다양한 가족친화제도를 운영하고 있었다. 또한 중소규모 기업에서도 가족친화경영의 필요성을 인식하고 있었으나 소규모 기업의 특수성, 제도 확대에 따른 부담, 제도 도입의 복잡성 등과 같은 가족친화경영 및 가족친화제도 도입에 따른 어려움을 경험하고 있었다. 각 기업의 상황에 따라 가족친화 인증 참여 의지는 다르게 나타났으나, 연구참여자들은 가족친화경영의 필요성을 인지함에 따라 CEO 교육 확대, 가족친화제도 도입에 대한 사회적 분위기 조성, 홍보 확대 및 제도의 간소화 등을 중소규모 기업의 가족친화경영 및 가족친화인증 참여 확대 방안으로 이야기하였다. 본 연구 결과는 향후 중소규모 기업의 가족친화경영 및 가족친화인증 참여를 확산하기 위한 정책 마련에 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

This study explores the factors influencing employees' use of family-friendly programs. Although recent years have witnessed an increasing number of family-friendly programs offered in the workplace, many studies have reported a lack of their actual use. This study considers various socio-demographic and workplace characteristics such as attitudes toward gender roles, and the perceptions of the work environment to better understand the reason behind this insufficient use. For this, data from the 2nd National Korean Family Survey in 2010 were employed. The results based on a total of 408 employees with diverse occupations indicate that among the four family-friendly programs evaluated(flexible working hours, child care, dependant care, and employee wellbeing), child care programs were most frequently provided by employers. In addition, the factors influencing employee participation in family-friendly programs were associated mainly with workplace characteristics or attitudes toward gender roles. The work environment including the employee's perceptions of how comfortable it is to accept assistance from family-friendly programs was also a key factor. Personal characteristics such as age and attitudes toward gender roles except for family needs had significant effects on employee participation in family-friendly programs. Future research should examine the effects of various environmental factors on employees' responses to family-friendly programs and investigate additional factors that can further enhance the effectiveness of such programs.

This study investigates the influence of family-friendly workplace policies and organizational culture on the willingness of married female managers to have a child. The analysis includes 353 married female managers from the $6^{th}$ survey of the 2016 Korean Women Manager Panel. Factors that are found to influence the respondents include age, education, number of children, job position, promotional goals, accessibility to family leave, accessibility to shorter work hours during the child-rearing period, and organizational culture. Female managers who can easily use family leave or who have shorter work hours during the child-rearing period show a higher willingness to have a child. By contrast, those whose work places employ a fair and horizontal organizational culture are less willing to have a child. The introduction of family-friendly policies are not found to be statistically significant determinants of female managers' willingness to have a child. We find that influencing family-friendly policies between the first and second childbirth differ. The accessibility of family-friendly policies that affect the willingness of female managers to have a child when they have no child include parental leave, employer-supported childcare, and childcare subsidies. For improving their willingness to have a second child, accessibility to both family leave and shorter work hours during the child-rearing period are effective. In conclusion, the government should strongly consider micro-personal factors, such as family-friendly workplace practices and organizational culture, when executing policies to reverse the current trend of low fertility.

This study reviews a family-friendly system of companies from the viewpoint of family resource management. The concept of a family-friendly system in the workplace means that the strategy 'supports the family' or 'is sensitive to the family life' and recognizes a need for balance between work and family. The suggestions proposed in this study were as follows: First, the direction of a family-friendly system must reflect the needs of the family members positively and recognize diversity. Second, it must consider efficient methods relating to the matter of the gender because a corporate culture enabling men to use childcare leave has not grown, even in family companies. Third, the directions to check the present developing process of our society and to develop the suitable way to each company must be shown. This study has proposed that the subjects must solve immediately in the future with understanding the contents and looking around the status of the enforcement at the inside and outside of the country for a family-friendly system to handle the balance between work and family in the workplace. The problems were the context of the introductions and the results of balancing between work and family no matter whether the introduction of the system by company or not.

본 연구는 2019년 현재 가족친화인증을 유지하고 있는 501개 기업(관)을 대상으로 인증 획득 후 가족친화경영 수준을 파악하고 기업(관)이 인지하는 기업성과와 사회적 성과를 분석하였다. 또한 인증 후 컨설팅, 가족친화 직장교육 등 사후지원이 인증기업(관)의 가족친화경영과 성과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대한 분석을 통해 가족친화경영의 활성화 방안을 도출하고자 하였다. 주요결과와 제언은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 인증기업(관)의 가족친화경영과 관련하여 가족친화 관련 제도의 규정화 운영수준은 높은 편이나, 성과지표 관리 측면은 가장 취약한 부분으로 나타났다. 이는 기업(관)의 실질적인 성과와 연동되는 가족친화경영 성과지표 산정과 측정 관리가 필요함을 시사한다. 둘째, 기업성과 중 기업(관) 홍보 및 이미지 개선과 조직신뢰향상, 사회적 성과 중 조직리더의 가족친화인식 향상과 성평등 직장문화 조성을 높게 인식하는 점을 정책적으로 홍보하고 기업(관)의 유인책으로 활용할 필요가 있다. 나아가 기존의 듀얼 아젠다 관점에서 확대된 제3의 아젠다인 사회적 성과로서 가족친화 사회환경 조성을 위한 기업(관)의 파급력을 강조할 것을 제안한다. 셋째, 전반적으로 인증 후 컨설팅이나 가족친화 직장교육의 경험이 있는 기업(관)이 없는 기업(관) 보다 가족친화경영 수준, 기업성과, 사회적 성과가 통계적으로 유의미하게 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 가족친화경영이 지속적으로 활성화되고 기업 및 사회적 성과 달성을 위해서는 기업(관)의 장기적이고 체계적인 노력이 필요함을 시사한다.

The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between family-friendly policies in working places and the childbearing intentions of married-employed women. The analysis included 415 married working women from the 2012 wave of the Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women and Family. The factors influencing the childbearing intentions of the women were age, education, number of children under age 18, childbirth leave, childcare facilities, and flextime. The women whose work-places provided childbirth leave had stronger childbearing intentions. The women under age 35 had stronger childbearing intentions when their work-places had flextime policies. In conclusion, my recommendation is that the government should pay more attention to the micro-personal factors, such as the Family-friendly Workplace Practices proposed in this study, when executing policies to reverse the current trend of low fertility.

The purpose of this research was, first, to classify work-life satisfaction among married wage workers aged 20-59 years into several distinct types based on two dimensions of work and life, using data from the 20th(2017) wave of the Korean Labor & Income Panel Study. Second, the study aimed to assess the differences in socio-demographic characteristics (sex, age, educational level, average monthly income), and workplace-related variables (weekly working hours, full-time employment, job stability, business type, family-friendly leave policies) by work-life satisfaction type. Accordingly, four types of work-life satisfaction were identified: work-life satisfaction, work-life dissatisfaction, work satisfaction, and life satisfaction. There was a significant difference in the type of work-life satisfaction among married waged workers based on sex, age, educational level, and average monthly income. Additionally, there was a significant difference in the type of work-life satisfaction for all workplace-related variables, namely, weekly working hours, full-time employment, job stability, business type, and family-friendly leave policies. In particular, proportionally higher values of work-life satisfaction were evident among the workers in companies with family-friendly leave policies such as paid leave, menstrual leave, maternity leave, childcare leave, and family events leave, whereas there was a high rate of work-life dissatisfaction among the workers in companies without family-friendly leave policies.
