Absence Matters: Work-Life Balance

One of the best ways to keep employees engaged and successful at work is to encourage them to enjoy their lives outside of work. A work-life balance is the special ingredient that helps employees be at their best while at work. And for employers, managing employee well-being is crucial to retaining talent and promoting healthy, sustainable lifestyles.

In many ways, COVID-19 was the hammer that shattered the illusion that all was well in the state of work. During the last two years, many employees (particularly women) have experienced different ways of working that, for some, worked better. And they’d like to keep it that way. On the other hand, the intense intermingling of women’s personal and professional lives — and the challenges associated with it — became more obvious to working women, their families, and their employers.

The timeline of mental health parity legislation shows that progress has been made, but it has been slow and only focused on parity between mental health compared with medical and surgical benefits. This leaves a big gap in other areas of insurance, which maintains the stigma related to mental illness and substance use disorders and results in embedded discriminatory practices and bias.
