Status Report: The Corporation and Trends in Family Issues
Abstract
The two‐paycheck family is making new demands on the corporation. With both parents involved in family and work life, the corporation, if it wants to keep these professionals in the workforce, must consider new, flexible approaches to management. Under review are policies concerning parental leave, child care, flexible work schedules, cafeteria‐style benefits, and a new corporate consideration of the importance of family life. At this time, it appears that the greatest impetus will come from the courts and Congress, with family‐oriented legislations being considered for the presidential year of 1988.
