Answer the following question in a paper of 900 to 1000 words. (With a typical font and spacing, this will be approximately 4 to 5 pages.) Readings 40 and 43 discuss workplace policies that are intended to create a better balance between work and family. Yet these policies do not always effectively address the tension between work and family life. Describe policies that workplaces offer their employee-parents that are intended to allow them to participate more fully in family life. Why do they fail to accomplish their goal? Describe other policies, ones not mentioned in these readings, that you believe might be helpful. The policies you suggest may be your own ideas: they need not be in place at a particular workplace.
