  4. Flexible Working, Work–Life Balance, and Gender Equality: Introduction

    Heejung Chung, Tanja van der Lippe · 2018 · Social Indicators Research · 695 citations

    This special brings together innovative and multidisciplinary research (sociology, economics, and social work) using data from across Europe and the US to examine the potential flexible working has on the gender division of labour and workers' work-life balance. Despite numerous studies on the gendered outcomes of flexible working, it is limited in that the majority is based on qualitative studies based in the US.

  18. Work Life Balance and Wellbeing, and the Un/changing Nature of Teachers’ Work

    Kay Whitehead · 2013 · Education Research and Perspectives

    This article explores the relationship between teachers’ work and the condition known as “neurasthenia” or “strain” in the early twentieth century, focusing on debates during the South Australian Royal Commission on Education in 1911–1912. It then examines two contemporary policy documents related to teachers’ work in South Australia, highlighting the current emphasis on work-life balance and teacher wellbeing as modern counterparts to historical concerns about strain. The author argues that these contemporary focuses do little to address the structural conditions of teachers’ work, which have remained largely unchanged over the past century.
