Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this article is to initiate critical reflection on the assumptions and evidence underpinning the worklife balance debate. Designmethodologyapproach The article reviews a range of international literature focused on and related to the worklife balance debate and issues. Findings In the worklife balance debate, overwork is perceived as the problem. Nevertheless, beyond working time and the provision of flexible working practices to enable child care, there is little in the debate abut the need to change work per se. The debate also narrowly perceives life, equating it with women's care work, hence the emphasis again of familyfriendly polices. Research limitationsimplications The article suggests that reconceptualisation is required in analyses of both worklife balance and the relationship between work and life. Practical implications The article implies that current worklife balance policies are myopic in terms of addressing the needs and aspirations of employees. Originalityvalue The article offers a synthesis of evidence that is wider than that typical in current analyses of work and life.
