ÇALIŞAN-DOSTU KURUMLARDA İŞ-YAŞAM DENGESİ POLİTİKALARI, KURUMSAL İLETİŞİM VE VERİMLİLİK

Year 2017, Issue: 4, 7 - 27, 16.10.2017

Abstract

İş-yaşam sınırları son zamanlarda ilgi çeken
alanların başında yer almaktadır. Farklı alanlardan birçok akademisyen iş-yaşam
dengesi konusuna oldukça yoğun bir ilgi göstermektedir ve kavramın çeşitli odak
noktalarıyla birlikte kullanıldığı birçok araştırma yapılmaktadır. Bu alandaki çalışmalar;
iş-yaşam dengesinin psikolojik sağlık üzerindeki etkisi, verimlilik artışı,
çift-kariyerli ailelerin deneyimleri, iş ve aile arasındaki çatışmalar, kurumların
iş-yaşam girişimlerinde değişim politikaları, iş-yaşam dengesi ve cinsiyet
farklılıkları konusunda uluslararası modelleri kapsamaktadır.  

 

İş-yaşam dengesi; küreselleşme ve hızlı teknolojik
değişim, yaşlanan nüfus, çift kariyerli aile sayısının artması ve özellikle
kadınların doğurganlık oranlarındaki düşüşe bağlı olarak işgücü piyasasına
katılım oranlarının yükselmesiyle birlikte son yıllarda gelişmiş ülkelerde öne
çıkan bir politika söylemi haline gelmiştir. Çalışanlar, iş ve kişisel yaşam
sorumluluklarını dengelemek için fırsatlar talep ederken bunun karşılığında
kurumlar da çalışanlarına iş-yaşam dengesi fırsatları sunarak rekabet avantajı kazanmaktadır.
Bu konuda farkındalığı artan çalışanlar açısından esnek çalışma saatleri, iş
paylaşımı, evden çalışma, azaltılmış çalışma saatleri gibi iş düzenlemeleri
daha önemli hale gelmektedir. İş-yaşam dengesi uygulamaları, iş gereksinimleri
ile stres arasındaki ilişkiyi de yumuşatmaktadır. Bununla birlikte, kurumsal
iş-aile düzenlemeleri, destekleyici bir iş-aile kültürü ve çalışan refahı
ilişkisi için muhtemel arabulucular olarak görülmektedir.

 

Çalışanların kişisel yaşam ve iş yaşamlarındaki
memnuniyeti, kurumları da olumlu yönde etkilemektedir. İş-yaşam dengesi
uygulamaları, çalışan dostu kurumlarda daha yüksek verimlilik, kârlılık ve
değer yaratımını da beraberinde getirmektedir. İşverenler çalışan-dostu
yaklaşımıyla çalışan verimliliğini yükseltmek kadar kurum verimliliğini ve
kârlılığı artırmayı da beklemektedir. Çalışanların motivasyonu, iş tatmini,
kurumsal bağlılığı ve verimliliği ise kurumsal iletişim ortamıyla yakından ilişkilidir.
Bu çalışmada; çalışan-dostu olarak adlandırılan kurumlarda uygulanmaya
çalışılan iş-yaşam dengesi çabalarının, verimlilikle olduğu kadar kurumsal
iletişimle olan ilişkisi de ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır. Çalışma,
uluslararası üç akademik derginin 1990-2017[1]
döneminde bu konularla ilgili yayımlanan araştırmaların incelenmesiyle
hazırlanmıştır.
