Positive flexibility refers to working time arrangements that meet the needs of employees and provide choice in balancing work and family life. Increased flexibility in working hours can thus have a positive impact on gender equality. This is in contrast to negative forms of flexibility that result in involuntary working time arrangements that restrict the choices of working parents, particularly women. Flexible arrangements include part-time work, flexi-time schemes, telework, working from home, compressed working weeks, gradual return from leave, job sharing, term-time working, time banking and working time accounts. Surveys consistently show that employees who have access to flexibility at work have higher scores related to engagement and lower scores on stress and burnout, and a positive impact on employee retention.

In December 2013, the European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE) commissioned ÖSB Consulting to carry out a study focusing on policies and the collection of good practices in the field of reconciliation of work, family and private life in EU Member States. The study also included a policy and literature review in the field of reconciliation at EU and Member State level. This policy review consists of two parts. The first part provides an overview of the main developments on the issue in the European Union (political, social and legislative) including relevant EU legislation and documents. The second part is based on the contributions and information gathered by national experts (a list of the country experts of all 28 Member States is included in this publication). The involvement of men in care activities, the labour market participation and economic independence of women, the involvement of social partners in reconciliation matters and the impact of the economic crisis and related austerity measures on reconciliation issues are crosscutting themes of the review.

Work is a source of income, professional satisfaction and social contact. However, work is not always easy to combine with family life and other private activities, especially for parents. Reconciling both demands is an important issue for many citizens in the European Union. This publication looks at various aspects of the issue of reconciliation of work with family life. It features discussions of the data sources used and gives an overview of the differences in the relevant legal arrangements in the Member States. The report starts with a description of the labour market situation, including developments in part-time work, fixed-term contracts and household composition. The following chapters cover working hours with special attention to unpaid family work, childcare and other care services, maternity and parental leave and flexibility in working time arrangements, including atypical working times such as working at night or at the weekend.
