Work-Family Arrangements in Organisations

More about the book

"A cross-national perspective reveals different patterns in the nature and degree of employers involvement in various welfare state regimes. The countries included in this book are the Netherlands, Italy, the United Kingdom and Sweden. Employers calculate the costs and benefits of work-family arrangements, while taking both institutional conditions and organisational needs into account. In this study differences between employers are analysed in relation to social policy and the wider welfare state context"--back cover.
