Answer preview
Working in today’s society is quite challenging for numerous employees. People are struggling to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Tough economic times force people to take on more hours at work, which hurts their personal lives. The longer the time a person spends at work, the less time they can dedicate to spending time with family members or even pursue private ventures. People with a healthy work-life balance are more often than not happy, making them more productive and motivated. Very few employees will feel motivated to show up for work and put their best foot forward when they know doing this eats into a substantial portion of their time.
