Nowadays, many people struggle to maintain a balance between life and work. This essay focuses on the causes of this issue and how can we resolve it.
One of the primary reasons for this issue could be extended working hours. People spend more than half of the day in offices and workplaces which restricts them to focus on their personal life. A lot of people engages with their family only on weekends and public holidays which is a bit concerning as it can lead to relationship issues and family problems. Furthermore, work pressure and stress can also be considered a serious cause for not being able to maintain both work and life. People these days get busy because of their workload and don’t pay attention to their family members, relatives and friends. For example, my friend is interning at a company and she is so busy in the weekdays because of the workload and hardly get any time for herself and others.
Companies should assign more people on a team or a project so, that workload can be distributed among the collagues thus, by reducing work stress. This can decrease the burden on an individual and eventually he will be left with some spare time or can take a leave early from office. Additionally, they should also hold sessions on time management to educate employees on how to use their time efficiently. These lessons can help in understanding the importance of adjustment in one’s life and how can they further improve stability.
To conclude, these organisations should focus on improving their work culture by establishing a healthy environment. Employees should also spend some quality time with their families by going on vacations and taking leaves if feeling stressed or overburdened.
