Korean workplaces can and should reflect the realities of the 21st century workforce. Leading companies try to plan and implement family-friendly policies for their employees, but most of them in fact do not offer family-friendly policies or offer only a few such policies. Therefore, this study seeks to suggest policies that can lead to better family-friendly cultures at workplaces. A family-friendly company culture allows for a better work-life balance, including flexible schedules and generous family-leave policies. This study suggests a family-friendly committee for work-life balance and a role for the government as a leading organization.

This study examined how the resources from work, family and community lowered family-to-work conflict (FWC) and enhanced family-to-work facilitation (FWF) of employed women with a child younger than 18 years old in order to provide empirical support for the Korean government's effort to create a family-friendly community as a way to help employed mothers balance work and family life. Information from 608 employed mothers living in 45 different communities were extracted from the 4th-wave of the Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women and Families in 2012, while community resources indicators were selected from the 2012 database of the Korean Statistical Information Service. Findings from the HLM analysis were as follows. First, there were significant variation in FWC and FWF among employed mothers depending on the communities they resided in. Second, work satisfaction, representative of work resource, relieved FWC and enhanced FWF, but spousal support, which represents family resource, affected neither FWC nor FWF. Third, community resources, as represented by family-friendly environment and frequent volunteering by community residents, lowered FWC but failed to enhance FWF. Lastly, family-friendly community resources served to mitigate the negative relationship between work satisfaction and FWC. This study is meaningful in that it provided empirical evidence for the contribution of community resources to work-family balance of employed mothers.

본 연구는 코로나 19 시기 워킹맘의 일과 가정의 균형과 관련된 경험을 탐색하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 1명 이상의 초등학생 이하의 자녀를 둔 시간제와 전일제 워킹맘 17명을 연구 대상자로 모집하여 심층면접을 실시하였다. 심층면담 내용을 근거이론 방법으로 분석한 결과 106개의 개념, 50개의 하위범주, 24개의 범주가 도출되었다. 코로나 19 시기에 워킹맘이 일과 가정을 양립하는 과정에서 경험하는 중심현상은 '신체적, 정서적 소진', '역할 갈등 상황에서의 불안감과 죄책감', '워킹맘이 겪는 일자리 위기', '가족 갈등 심화'로 나타났다. 워킹맘이 시간의 흐름에 따라 중심현상을 극복하여 일과 가정의 양립을 이루는 과정은 '충격과 혼란 단계', '고군분투 단계', '적극적 대처와 타협 단계', '수용 단계', '외상 후 성장 단계'의 5단계로 파악되었다. 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 코로나 19 시기 워킹맘의 일과 가정의 양립 경험에 대한 논의와 후속 연구를 위한 제언을 서술하였다.

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 공공도서관의 MZ세대 사서들을 중심으로 일과 삶의 균형이 조직몰입 및 이직의도에 미치는 영향과 조직몰입이 이직의도에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 수도권 공공도서관에 근무하는 1980년~2005년생 사서 183명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 일과 삶의 균형의 하위 요인인 일-가족 균형, 일-여가 균형, 일-성장 균형과 조직몰입, 이직의도를 조사하였다. 다중회귀분석 결과, 일-가족 균형, 일-성장 균형은 조직몰입에 유의한 정적(+) 영향을, 이직의도에 유의한 부적(-) 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 조직몰입은 이직의도에 유의한 부적(-) 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 따라 본 연구는 일-가족 균형, 일-성장 균형을 강화하는 정책과 함께 공공도서관의 야간 및 주말 근무에 대하여 정책적인 보상이 필요하다고 제안하였다. 또한, 조직몰입을 강화하기 위하여 수평적인 의사소통과 자율권 강화 등을 제안하였다.

Purpose: This study was done to explore how nurses manage the boundary for work-family balance. Methods: Data were collected through in-depth interviews from February 1 to May 28, 2012. Participants were 13 married nurses with children. The constant comparative method was adapted for data analysis. Results: In this study, nurses' work-family boundary management had characteristics of integration, maintenance and control, but it was adjusted and modified over time as the order of priorities was rearranged according to changes in internal cognition and family support. Nurses strategically persuaded their families to understand their work and share housework in an effort to integrate work and family, while controlling them by managing working hours and time for themselves. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that nurses' work has an impact on family life due to heavy workload and insufficient time, however the work-family balance can be successfully maintained with the effective separation of the two areas.

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether employed mothers' extended working hours have effects on childcare style and work-family conflicts. The data came from the 2007 Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women and Family(KLoWF) of the Korean Women's Development Institute. 475 females with preschoolers or elementary-school children were used in this study. The major findings can be summarized as follows: (1) Weekly average working hours varied by education, salary, and the presence of preschoolers. (2) The time of childcare was significantly shorter in mothers who work more than 50 hours/week (3) Mothers who worked more than 50 hours/week felt significantly high work-family conflict. These analyses pointed to the importance of obeying the law related to working hours as the most important thing to sustain work-family balance. Institutional foundations should be enabled to keep legal working hours.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the present condition of work-leisure balance and its influencing factors in employed young single households. Three groups of sample households-work-oriented, balanced, and leisure-oriented-were compared by factors related to work and leisure. Six cases were interviewed to obtain qualitative data on the subjective meaning of work-life balance and its influencing factors. The results showed different characteristics between the three groups based on the various work- and -leisure- related factors: average weekly working hours of the week, number of vacation days per year, weekday leisure time, degree of weekday freedom, and sufficiency of the leisure cost. In addition, the characteristics considered desirable for quality of life differed between groups. Finding the meaning of life through work and leisure was very important for those respondents, who have an unstable position in the labor market, and who want to delay making decisions on moving into the marriage and family-building phase recognized as a major development task for Korean adults.

This study classified the current work-life balance of full-time female paid workers and tested the typology by using the 2009 Korean Time Survey. The categorization demographic and psychological characteristics of women belonging to each type were comparatively analyzed. It was found that full-time female paid workers used an average of 435.7 minutes for work, 146.4 minutes for family, 104.5 minutes for leisure, and 17.7 minutes for growth. On the basis of times used in each area of work and life, individuals were classified into family-oriented type, work-leisure parallel type, work-oriented type, work-growth parallel type, and work-family parallel type. Psychological characteristics were examined by type. The work-oriented type women experienced feelings of lack of time and fatigue the most compared with women of other types. From examining the influence that the amount of time used in each area of work and life had on psychological characteristics, it was shown that the activity time relevant to leisure influenced psychological characteristics the most. Lastly, based on the limitations of this study, future assignments are discussed.
