 KMOP’s Better-Balance Guide – A Resource for Work-Life Balance 

The Covid-19 Pandemic has brought with it a series of challenges. One of these includes the effect it has taken on women and their work-life balance.  

Research has found that there has been a drastic increase in rates of women’s stress and mental health concerns, however there is little practical support available on how to prevent it. The Balance Project, of which COFACE member KMOP is part of, aims to support and equip women and their workplace leaders to better manage work-life balance. To achieve its aims, the Balance Project has developed a number of resources, including the Better-Balance Guide. Better-Balance Guide is a comprehensive tool designed to upskill adult educators, equipping them with the necessary knowledge and tools to train their learners on achieving balance in today’s work environment in a digital world. 

 This e-book is designed for 𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐞𝐞𝐬, 𝐇𝐑 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐭 𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬, who seek to learn effective strategies for managing work-life balance in the post-pandemic era.

The guide comprises practical tips and activities, delves into essential theories, explores work-related challenges, offers insights into mental health, and provides valuable tools for managing burnout.

You can access for free the online version in English here.
