SMEs who Facilitate Co-responsible Work-life Balance to Men
Abstract
The novelty of this work lies in analysing the conditions that favour a co-responsible work-life balance to men who are fathers and how it can be explained that some Spanish companies are innovating in this direction. We will focus on the qualitative analysis of 11 small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the main productive fabric in Spain. We have compared the evolution of companies over time and also similar companies in terms of economic sector. This has allowed us to understand the most relevant internal and external factors. The results show that dialoguing and transforming leadership and the organizational culture marked by the compromise-trust tandem are key elements for understanding how business policies can be implemented for co-responsible work-life balance.
