Family-friendly work practices: differences within and between workplaces

Matthew Cameron Gray and Jacqueline Tudball

Labor and Demography from EconWPA

Abstract: One of the major economic and social changes of recent decades has been the large increase in the number of mothers in paid employment. As a consequence, there has been increasing recognition by employers of the importance of family-friendly work arrangements to assist parents to balance work and family responsibilities. This research is the first large-scale analysis of the extent to which employees within organisations in Australia have differential access to a range of family-friendly work practices.
