| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to grasp the rule of Work/Life Balance (WLB) with each couple. Interview survey was carried out in order to find out the maintenance method of working conditions, family situations and social environment, which was much related with WLB. Objects in this survey were 15 female nurses with dual-career (including 5 nurses retired after marriage).
Research method was the semi-structured interview about the balance between work and family life. According to the results, the approach and device for keeping WLB was the understanding and support of partner. In addition, the fullness of family life had an effect to keep Work/Life Balance, and the degree of WLB influenced the housework situation compared with the work situation. In order to keep WLB, it is necessary to consider 'accessibility to the support system', 'resolution of the lack of staff members', and 'enhancement of social recognition toward the difficulty of child-care leave of males' at work. Moreover, it is necessary to share the housework together with consideration and utilize the support conditions including one's partner appropriately. In addition, the gender-conscious of the boss had effect on Negative Spillover from work to family, stress and physical fatigue. As the results of above-mentioned, the growing rate of the support system had effect on Negative Spillover from family to work for the situation of one's husband. These issues were connected with job turnover. Therefore, it is suggest that taking a cooperative stance toward support systems by the boss is seen to be of use in keeping WLB for dual-career couples. As the future issues, it is necessary to examine a relationship between the flexible shift system and the feasibility of organizational correspondence.
