1. Taking Time Off Between Work
Taking time off in between work helps in dealing with stress. The human body is not designed to endure for long hours at a go. Physical movements like a light walk or some desk exercises can be really helpful here.
2. Proper Planning
Planning the day-to-day activities at work is another way of managing a good balance between life and work. It helps individuals prioritize their actions following the importance of a task.
3. Encouraging a Healthy Lifestyle
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle plays a big role in an employee’s quest to achieve a healthy work-life balance. Healthy employees are like the jewels in the crown for every organization.
4. Encouraging No Work at Home Policy Post Work Hours
Most often, the employees carry their work home to make up for the deadlines. The inability to leave work in the workplace is a major issue resulting from the excess workload born by the employees.
5. Flexible Work Schedule
Maintaining a good balance between work and life isn’t possible if there’s no personal time left after leaving work. In such a case, having a flexible work schedule becomes very important. Flexibility in work timings helps the employees lay equal focus on their own personal and social side of life like that of their work.
6. Encourage Hobbies
Every one of us has a hobby like reading, painting, photography, dancing, collecting old stamps and so on. A good work-life balance is not only limited to giving importance to work and family. It’s also about giving importance to the things that one loves doing on a personal level.
7. Team-Building Exercises
Team-building is about getting people to work together to reach a common goal. It can be an incredibly effective way of improving relationships. However, many people don't realize that team building can be beneficial for work-life balance as well.
8. Focus on Physical Health
It isn't easy to maintain an active lifestyle or find time to visit the gym with a busy schedule.
A gym at the office would help not only your employees' physical health but also their mental health and work-life balance.
It is also a great employee incentive program for employees to lead healthier lifestyles.
