Balancing Work-Life Systems

Breathalyser

If you have enough time at work, then you don’t have enough time at home, or so it seems. If you have enough time at home, then you have less time for work and your career, or so it would seem. Is a happy life one which is balance right in between the two? Or are people happier who focus on one or the other more fully?

The truth is, we all know someone who is a workaholic and we know about their suffering families and broken marriages. But, conversely, we all know someone who is happily just getting by doing the minimum amount of work necessary in order to survive, but focuses all of their time on community, family, home and traveling. Does one lifestyle matter more than another? Is it all based upon personal preference, or is there a way to get the maximum benefit, which applies to most people?

The work versus life systems which you have set up in your life should be entirely complementary. In other words, you should be able to, to some extent, live your job, and work on your family and home. Your work should be mostly work, but also engaging your personal side, bringing what you love and value into the picture, and your home and personal life should be able to take the kind of devotion and care which you give to your work. That is how the two can easily be complimentary. However, many people find it difficult to enjoy a job they thought would solve all of their problems if they have a history of being emotional weak or of substance abuse.

That is precisely why you need the information which drug test kits and alcohol screening tests can give you. Through the NATA accredited recalibration service from CMM Technology, as well as our variety of drug test equipment, you can make sure that your employees are working as hard and as efficiently as possible, without being affected by coworkers who may be abusing substances while at work. You can obtain information regarding these things, in order to make better decisions which will protect everyone in your workplace.
