And now, we need to add on the phenomenon of the pandemic that has forced many families to work from home and blur the lines between work and personal lives. This competing demands from family and work, which was already a great concern, is affecting more than ever the well-being of people and at the same time the productivity of companies.
To look at it from a health standpoint, these conflicts between work and family life have negative consequences such as depression, poor physical health, work addiction, dysfunctional family relationships, etc., affecting men as well as women.
