Work/Life balance is an issue for me at my job...? I just had a discussion with my supervisor about how life/work balance "philosophy" is not applicable to our company as "we do not have the luxury" to think this way. You should know that we have over a 50% turnover rate. It seems as though they do not encourage anyone to balance work with their outside life. I work an average of 12 hour days. Yes... I am looking for a new job. But what do you think about this? We are a young company and I agree that we all have to work hard. But does that mean giving up on your social life? Its not like I am getting paid enough for it. And even if I was... I dont know that I want to move up in a company that will strip me of my personal life. Its hard. Sometimes I feel like in order to accomplish some of my dreams I'll have to give up on others... life being a mom, wife, sister, friend, daughter, etc. I am only 24 years old. Any advice and or comments?

Are there any guidelines about work and private life balance? Is there any limit to how much is expected? I work for a large orgasnisation. The work load imposed upon employees is unmanageable and therefore creates high stress levels. This leads to long working hours - often 12-14 hrs plus each day, with no prospect of being paid for the time or getting it back. This is not the issue I have however. I am now in a position where my job is impacting upon my home life and health. The managers of this organisation are uninterested and appear unwilling to act upon these concerns. Where do I stand as I am fearful of making mistakes as this could lead to disciplinary proceedings, (and possibly the sack) and also of the impact that this is having upon me personally. Is there anything I can do? Very helpful answers and I take your point. However I work for a criminal justice agency andf I trained for 2 years for this job, the qualification is specific, so I am kind of pigeon holed! Beleive me I have been looking for another job and still am, but at the same time feel quite angry that I am almost being forced to leave a career I enjoy because of the bad management of my particular office.
