In the area of work-life policy, European top managers place the interest of the organisation above that of their employees. Schemes intended to make it easier for employees to combine their work and private life should preferably benefit the company as well, according to employers in Europe. Flexible working times and possibilities to work from home can count on the most support at the top level. This is what Wike Been concludes in her PhD thesis 'European top managers' support for work-life arrangements' that was realised with funding from NWO Social Sciences. She will defend her PhD thesis on Friday 18 December at Utrecht University.
